The School District of Osceola County offers a districtwide 1:1 initiative this school year. Students enrolled in SDOC will receive technology equipment that will be checked out to them for educational uses only

Each student will be issued a laptop or iPad, along with a charger and protective case, for use both at school and at home. Students in grades K–1 will receive an iPad, while students in grades 2–12 will be issued an 11-inch lightweight Windows laptop. Select 2nd and 3rd grade students at certain schools will receive a MacBook Neo device instead.

It is essential that students take care of their assigned devices and protect them from damage. Damage is defined as any material change, whether caused by negligence, accident, or intent, that affects the device’s functionality or appearance. In the event of damage, a fee may be assessed to the student, parent, or legal guardian, depending on the cause and type of damage.

For more information, please refer to the Student Code of Conduct Handbook and the 1:1 Student Device Damage Fee page.
