I wondered why I didn't have to pay for the iPad insurance fee. When I got my 2016 fees I figured it out. They are offering payments online which I will take advantage of if there are no additional fees for that.

We never had a choice in the matter. My kids have iPad's they can use that wouldn't cost me any extra money

This is just insane! Where are the parents options to BUY an iPad for their students. Try having 4 kids all in school at the same time, this just will not do...

It's so important to keep us in the loop when you are spending our money!

I agree we should have a choice. I have paid enough IPAD insurance fees to own one. Now I have three kids at the current charge and I could almost purchase one, let alone pay this every year for 6 more years with twins. We deserve a choice.

I am not paying $131 per student. Send me to collections! I will hire a lawyer.

I am day two, waiting for a return call from Lois Goeglein from EACS Administration. This situation is very disappointing. See you at the board meeting!

I don't agree that they can charge us for something that was never brought to our attention to begin with.

Where is the option for the parents to buy a iPad for the child in 7th grade?. I would have no issue buying one since it seems with these fees I could have bought 8 ipads over the yrs my 3 kids are required to have a iPad. I will pay about $1,000 this year in book fees this year and I'm a single parent with all that cost being mine. Oh and I'm sure if I'm late paying them on the required final date I will be turned into a collection agency. Awesome!!

I think it's ridiculous that we have to pay that much for an iPad. You can buy your own for what it's going to cost to rent these each year.

With 3 children in school and two 7th grade and up our total school fees are almost $800. That is absolutely absurd!!

I was shocked to see that the fees were double what I expected. Notification of the change should have been given at the start of the school year. The company is making a mint off of all of us.
