How much of my SchoolNet Plus Grade 8 funds can my district use to lease laptop/notebooks computers?
While there is no limit on the amount of SchoolNet Plus funds districts may use to lease laptops/notebooks, districts must ensure that at the end of the lease period, computers are available in classrooms where the laptops/notebooks were used. Statewide contract pricing is available only for purchase. If the district leases equipment, the district must be prepared to support the lease in future years, if SchoolNet Plus funds become limited, and must meet eTech Ohio minimum specifications.
