As part of the mission of the Putnam Valley Central School District, students have the opportunity to participate in our one to one laptop program. With that privilege comes responsibility. Please carefully review the updated Laptop Handbook for the Students and Parents posted on our website.
Through experience, we have found with proper care our laptops have a life span in excess of 5 years. Students who are careless and less than responsible with their laptops dramatically shorten the longevity of use.
When issues arise as a result of careless or irresponsible behavior, such as a broken screen, students will be charged a fee. An estimate of charges for various issues can be found on page 3 of the handbook.
It is one of the goals of the program to teach and instill responsible behavior not only with software and internet use, but also with the actual hardware.
We are fortunate to be able to provide this privilege to our students and look forward to their continued academic success.
