Do I need Chromebook insurance?

We believe insuring the Chromebook for the time your student is at Burrillville High School is a great idea!  The partnership with the Rhode Island Trust and the Worth Ave Group provides an unlimited number of zero-deductible claims for standard perils (fire, flood, vandalism), accidental damages (drops, spills, cracked screens), and theft.

How do I enroll a Chromebook into the insurance program?

You can ensure the Chromebook at https://gpo.worthavegroup.com/gpo/burrillvillehs.

What if I elect not to insure the Chromebook?

If you elect not to insure the Chromebook through the program, you will be responsible for reporting the damage through the Burrillville High School Administration.  Your student will be issued a loaner while the Chromebook is repaired by our Technology Department, and you will be billed for the repairs.  

For comparison, here's a list of common repair costs if done by our Technology Department:

• • Screen replacement - $40

  • Keyboard replacement - $60

  • Track-pad replacement - $30

  • Lost Chromebook charger - $40

  • Motherboard replacement - $200

As you can see, Worth Ave Group is a cost-effective way to insure against costly repairs.

What can we do to protect the Chromebook?  Could I purchase a case?

We’ve put together a list of Chromebook usage guidelines that cover the basics of how to care for and protect the Chromebook.  Beyond that, you can purchase a case or cover that fits an HP 11A G6 EE Chromebook from many local and online retailers.
