This is outrageous! The school district has an obligation to inform parents of any changes or fees at all times.

This fee should not have been implemented with or without our knowledge. Since the IPads are forced on us, the use of them should be free,

This is just absurd! You CAN NOT expect low income families or families with multiple children to just pull this kind of many out of their hat. Thank GOD my child is a senior this year and I don't have to deal with this in the future.

Way too much we need options. Hell I could buy 2 or 3 iPads by the time he graduates @ that cost.

As a former student of eacs and a graduate of Leo I find this to be ridiculous. The use of ipads alone is absurd then on top of that you want to charge parents for use of a "tool" to further the education of children it is horrible to make it mandatory and its unreasonable to think that some parents who struggle have to pay for an ipad for their child. My children will be homeschooled before I allow them to use an ipad for learning when it does nothing but distract

I would like an explanation of the added charge and what exactly it will be used for.

Poor communication EACS. These fees for iPads are ridiculous and with NO COMMUNICATION. We were told possibly going up to 59.00 but NOT 131.13. Unacceptable EACS.

At this rate I can buy my kid his own iPad and be able to keep it after the 4 years. Why would I rent something that would cost more then if I bought it?

Parents should have been informed at school registration of this not when the bills comes out!!

I was completely shocked when I received this bill. We were told at registration it would go up to approx $59.00 since brand new. Now being told this. We have 2 kids and bills over 630.00. That fee times 4 years is more than the iPad is worth and they don't even get to keep them. Being told this fee is because if something happens they can replace with new..... I can go to best but now and get a new iPad Air 2 wifi only for 400.00. Poorly planned EACS..... WHERE WAS THIS COMMUNICATION. ridiculous
