So what happens if a kid loses a backpack, drops the iPad, etc. iPads are a whole-lot more expensive to replace than a textbook.

Do the families get the option to purchase "replacement insurance" at the start of the school year? Do the kids get to keep the iPads if they finish 4 years of high school?

I went to a pretty poor school district. I can imagine kids getting MUGGED for their iPads if we'd had them back in the day!
