Technology Incentive Program (TIP)
Derby Public Schools offers students devices to help them achieve success. For middle and high school students and families, these devices include participation in the Technology Incentive Program (TIP).
Derby Schools leads the way in technology integration into the learning process. The benefits of integrating technology seamlessly into the learning process are undeniable, but the cost can be a challenge. The goals of this program are to reduce the total cost of our technology initiatives for students and to provide opportunities for better digital citizenship.
Benefits
Good Standing
To remain in TIP, students need to be in good standing. This means no loss or damage where the district incurs a cost to repair or replace the device and appropriate use.
If a student damages a device, and there is no warranty/insurance, families can pay for the repair for the student to stay in good standing.
