This month, the Technology Department has seen several student Chromebooks with battery failures. For students without supplemental insurance, Chromebook batteries are only covered under warranty for the first 12 months. Unfortunately, the cost to replace a battery can run over $100. For $34.95 a year, Securranty’s supplemental insurance will provide coverage for batteries, chargers, device malfunction, accidental damage, loss, theft, and standard perils. They also allow unlimited claims per year. To purchase insurance for 2024-2025, click here.
