1:1 Mobile Device Checkout Agreement

Purpose:  The goal of the Longview School District shall be to provide opportunities for students to understand and be able to utilize technology for educational, personal and employment needs (Board Policy No. 2022). To improve access of opportunity for all students, the Longview School District may issue students a one-to-one (1:1) technology device for the purpose of promoting achievement and providing flexible learning opportunities.

This agreement provides guidelines about expectations for students and families who are being issued these 1:1 devices.


Students are expected to:

❏ Charge their 1:1 device nightly and bring it to class each day with a full charge.
❏ Use their 1:1 device during class time only when directed to do so by the teacher and use it only for school-related purposes during the school day.
❏ Abide by the Responsible Use Agreement (Board Procedure 2022) at all times.
❏ Keep information password-protected and log off when they are away from their device.
❏ Insure important files are saved to the appropriate Google Drive. The district does not guarantee that data loss will not occur and is not liable for such loss.
❏ Follow copyright laws and fair use guidelines and only download/save music, video or other content that is related to specific assignments.
❏ Make the 1:1 device available for inspection by any administrator, teacher, or staff member upon request.
❏ Protect their device from liquids, dampness, or extreme temperatures and during transport.
❏ Notify the librarian immediately if the mobile device is lost or stolen. File a police report immediately for stolen devices and bring the police report number to the library.
❏ Mobile devices that need repair should be taken to the Library.


Students are expected NOT to:

1, Mark or deface the authorized stickers on the Chromebook which include: student identification and grade number, district barcode, serial number
2. Put ANY stickers on the Chromebook
3. Remove the barcode from the device.
4. Put tape over the camera.  To insure privacy, students may put a sticky note over the camera lens, but during remote learning students may be expected to use the camera to verify identity and participation.
5. Erase the serial number and identifying information from the bottom of the device. Students who do so will be responsible for the full purchase price of the device.
6. Attempt to override, bypass or otherwise change the security settings, Internet filtering, network settings, or other device settings. All students’ 1:1 devices are configured so that Internet content and communications are filtered both at school and when on any other networks. Please note that while district 1:1 devices are actively filtered and managed, the district cannot guarantee that students will not intentionally or unintentionally access content that may be deemed unacceptable. You may connect to home or public wifi when not on campus.

9. Download or install any unauthorized programs, files, or games from the Internet or other sources onto any district-owned technology.  This includes the intentional introduction of computer viruses and other malicious software.
10. Loan their 1:1 device or charger and cords to anyone else. Students are responsible for all communications and actions that originate from their device.
11. Attempt to locate, view, share, or store any materials that are unacceptable in a school setting. This includes but is not limited to pornographic, obscene, graphically violent, or vulgar images, sounds, music, language, video or other materials.
