I am sometimes asked about the correct procedure for giving assets to students, such as an incentive for NWEA results. This is very hard to do; it cannot be done casually. Schools can give devices to students, but it takes a fair amount of planning and clearance, beforehand, from Accounting is crucial. I've had a few conversations about this with Larry Fraze's team in Accounting. What follows are their policies; consider my notes an introduction to the topic. CPS Board Policy prohibits the gifting of CPS assets to students except in a limited set of circumstances: the devices were acquired with a grant specifically targeted for acquiring devices meant as an incentive; the devices were purchased with money from a fundraiser specifically organized for the same purpose; or the devices have been offered to every other school, no one wants them, and then the devices are offered to students in general via a lottery mechanism.
