FAQ

Following are commonly asked questions about the issue, use and expectations for student assigned devices.   Should you have additional questions, please contact the HF-L Technology Department at 585-624-7014 or email technologyservices@hflcsd.org.

  • Over time, and when more advantageous, departments are choosing to adopt digital textbooks and resources.   

  • Similar to other school supplies, students in grades K-12 are encouraged to purchase headphones for use with class projects and testing.  

    All students are encouraged to have a backpack with a laptop (padded) pocket or a separate laptop sleeve for carrying the device around school and to/from school.  

    My student has special needs.  How do I ensure accommodations for their unique needs? 

    Parents/guardians of students who have a disability should work with their student’s IEP manager and /or section 504 coordinator to determine what, if any, accommodations are needed.   

  • Yes. Instruction on citizenship, social and digital, is incorporated into everyday instruction.  For more information about digital citizenship, we recommend viewing resources form Common Sense Media .   Our teaching staff has also created learning targets for digital citizenship for each building to insure that teachers have clear expectations for teaching these skills as technology is incorporated into lessons.  

  • The district will purchase devices and all required software.  Families will be offered an opportunity to purchase a Device Protection Plan to offset unanticipated costs due to damage, loss or theft of the laptop. 

  • If students fail to bring their device to school, they will be responsible for completing course work as though they had their device with them (think of it in the same way as a textbook).   Spare devices are not available to students when they forget to bring their assigned device to school. 

  • Yes, students will be able to take home devices throughout the entire school year. Devices will be collected at the end of the school year.  

  • No, devices, power supplies and stylus, if applicable, will be collected at the end of the school year for maintenance and updates. 

  • All devices will be collected at the end of the school year.  Students who leave the district must return their school assigned device and accessories on or before the date they leave.  If a student fails to return the device at the end of the school year or upon termination of enrollment, the parent/guardian will be subject to civil liability for the total replacement cost of the device and any school supplied device accessories. 

  • No, the district will purchase and install all required software for student use. 

  • Yes, district supplied devices will connect to any wireless network. 

  • Families who do not have internet access should reach out to their student's counselor or Building Principal. 

  • Students should report any damage or operating malfunction to their teacher or building tech representative.  If a device is kept by the Technology Department for assessment or repair, the student will be issued a loaner device.   

    Loss or theft should also be reported to the Building Tech representative and the replacement/repair cost will be assessed by the Technology Department.
     
    The district is offering a device protection plan to cover repair/replacement costs.    Please visit MySchoolBucks to review and sign up for the Protection Plan or review the Device Protection Plan on the HF-L website. 

  • Yes, the purchase of the protection plan is at the discretion of the family. Please keep in mind that without the protection plan, families are liable for the full cost of any damage or the replacement cost of the device. 

  • Yes, students may still take home devices home.  Parents/guardians will be responsible for the full cost of any damage or replacement cost of the device. 

  • No, devices are redistributed in the district until the device reaches the end of its useful life. 

  • No, the district does not monitor students' usage or their device outside of school hours when the device is off school grounds.  Parents/guardians are responsible for their student's appropriate use of their device during those times.
