Device Protection Plan
Aledo ISD has a required Device Protection Plan for all 6th-12th graders who would like to check out a district Chromebook. Students in grades Pre-K through 5 utilize Chromebooks that stay in a cart in their classrooms on campus.
If your student is registering as a new student for 2025-2026 and will be checking out a district-issued Chromebook, you will not be able to pay for the DPP until early July.
For just $27, you can get FULL COVERAGE for your child’s district-issued Chromebook. This includes unlimited accidental breakage incidents as well as theft protection coverage. The Chromebook charger is not covered under this plan. Please note that this is non-refundable and only applies to the current school year.
If you’re ready to purchase the Device Protection Plan for your student(s), please log into the district's MySchoolBucks site. If you are having trouble paying fees through My School Bucks on your mobile device, we recommend you use a laptop or desktop computer to complete the transaction.
You can access MySchoolBucks online (www.myschoolbucks.com) or through an app on your phone or device: App Store | Google Play Store.
