Dear Parent or Guardian:
The Department of Education and Early Childhood
Development Bring Your Own Device program is for students in grades 9 to
12. A laptop or tablet is a required tool to support learning in these
grades. This program will allow for more personalized learning opportunities to
help better prepare students for post-secondary education and the workplace.
The Department understands that purchasing a new device
may be a financial pressure for families. In response, the department has
launched a financial assistance program for low to middle income families.
Under the program, parents and guardians can choose
between purchasing a device and applying for reimbursement or applying for a
subsidy code and ordering a laptop through IMP Solutions. Depending on
your household income, your child could qualify for between $200 to $600 of
subsidy.
For the full details of this program, including the
criteria for eligibility and required device specifications please visit: Laptop Subsidy
Program (gnb.ca)
What
if I am ineligible and need a device?
If
you are ineligible to receive a subsidy but would like to take advantage of a
discounted price for the laptop, you may still buy it through IMP Solutions.
You may access their site at https://eecdsd-edpeae.impsolutions.com.
Your
unique code to claim this discounted price is: B298-8BA4-3C44-4159.
Microsoft
Office software is provided for all students.
