District-Issued Devices

The MISD Technology Department oversees the distribution and return of student-issued equipment. Information about MISD's policies and procedures pertaining to district-loaned mobile devices along with how to obtain, manage and return your device can be found below.

Middle School Device Deployment

Starting Dec. 1, 2020, the MISD Technology Department will begin deploying new Chromebooks for all middle school students. The new devices will NOT be issued until the district-issued iPad or Chromebook has been returned. All returned devices must include a completed Student Device Return Form affixed to the screen of the device.

Getting Your Device

All remaining device requests for the 2020-21 school term will be delivered directly to the school for parent pickup. Parents will be notified when the device is ready. 

As a reminder, students do not need to use a district-owned device. Any device with an Internet connection can be used to access all programs and apps needed for virtual learning.

2020-21 Device Request Form
NOTE: Due to availability, some requests may be delayed. Please submit only one request.

Utilizing Your Device

Returning Your Device

District-issued devices must be returned if there is a problem with the device, if the student no longer needs the device or if the student no longer attends an MISD school. In addition, at the end of each school term, all district-issued devices must be turned in for necessary updates.
