Deadline for Chromebook Insurance
2025-09-08
Parents and students: go to risd.schoolpay.com. Once you log-in (using parent email associated with Focus), then all fees/programs (not just technology) will be in their ‘carts’.

All students should join the DRRP since it offers substantial savings to even routine repairs. Repair parts can get very expensive as compared to the cost of the premium. Take a look at the second page of the agreement to get an idea of the price of parts should you choose not to join and need a repair!

DRRP open enrollment will be from today to Sept 8th, 2025 – appreciate your help in getting our students the device-protection they need.
