Hudson Area Schools -

Dear Families, As we begin the 2025-2026 school year, we want to share an important update to our Technology User Agreement. Every student who receives a school-issued device will be asked to pay an annual, but optional $20.00 device protection plan fee, with a maximum of $50 per family. The protection plan will cover accidental repair costs or loss. Families who choose not to pay the protection plan fee will be responsible for the full cost of any replacement parts or devices in the event of damage, loss, or vandalism. Repairs Covered at No Cost to the Student: • The system board failure was not caused by abuse or physical damage. • Battery failure due to age or other non-abuse-related issues. Repairs/Items the Student Will Be Responsible For: • Chromebook screen: $35 • Chromebook keyboard: $25-$40 (depending on model) • Charger: $25 • iPad repairs: cost varies based on damage • Chromebook replacement: $325-$375 depending on the model • iPad replacement: $350 Payment Information: Fees will be collected at Open Houses or in the Elementary or Secondary Office. Cash, check, or card will be accepted. Thank you for your cooperation and support in helping us maintain our technology resources. We wish you and your student(s) a great school year! For more information or if you have any questions, please contact your school office.
