This year my school is forcing every student to check out a district laptop to use throughout the school year. Even students who already own their own laptops are forced to check out a school laptop. The problem is, the school is requiring everyone to pay a $25 lease fee in order check out the mandatory laptops along with an additional $25 insurance fee which is optional. If students do not buy insurance, they must pay the full cost if the laptop is broken. So to conclude, I am trying to get rid of the lease fee since the students are required to check out laptops. This is unconstitutional

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the response to this issue. It is clear that I am not the only one frustrated by these unfair fees. This momentum belongs entirely to all of you who decided to step up.
