MiFi 연결 문제가 발생할 수 있습니다. 이런 일이 발생하면 Epic은 MiFi 제공업체가 학생의 위치에 적합한지 검토합니다. Chromebook 및 iPad 학생들은 학습 기금을 사용하여 Chromebook이나 iPad를 받을 수 있습니다. 학생들은 둘 다 얻지 못할 수도 있습니다. iPad는 공급이 제한되어 있으므로 사용이 보장되지 않습니다. 23~24학년도부터 크롬북 구입 비용은 무료입니다. 그러나 분실 및 손상된 기술에 대해서는 학생의 학습 기금을 청구합니다. 다른 기술 서비스에 대한 표준 요금은 동일하게 유지됩니다. 자산 수익률 질문이 있거나 반품 자료를 요청하려면 이메일을 보내주십시오. 자산@epiccharterschools.org 또는 support@epiccharterschools.org Frequently asked questions MiFi를 받았지만 노트북은 받지 못했습니다. 함께 배송되나요? 아니요. 재고 수급 상황으로 인해 상품이 함께 배송되지 않습니다. 일주일이 지났는데 아직 기술을 받지 못했습니다. 어디입니까? 정책에 따라 배송이 1~3주 정도 걸릴 수 있습니다. 주문량에 따라 제품 가용성이 결정됩니다. 내 MiFi가 작동하지 않거나/분실/고장났습니다. 새 MiFi를 보내주실 수 있나요? 문제를 해결하려면 assets에(assets@epiccharterschools.org) 문의하세요. 문제가 확인되면 필요한 조치 과정을 결정하는 데 도움을 드릴 것입니다. 제공업체를 바꾸는 것부터 결함이 있는 기기를 반품하고 해당되는 경우 교체품을 보내는 것까지 다양합니다. 우리 아이들은 별도의 가구에 살고 있으며 두 번째 MiFi가 필요합니다. 예외를 적용할 수 있나요? LF 링크 추가 학습 기금을 검토한 후 이 질문에 대한 잠재적인 해결책이 있는지 판단하는 데 도움을 드리겠습니다. 현재 우리 정책은 학생 3명 대 1명의 MiFi 비율입니다. 우리는 이 지침이 느슨하게 정의되어 있음을 이해합니다. 완화되는 상황은 검토될 수 있으며 Epic Charter School의 재량에 따릅니다. 학습기금은 언제부터 손해배상 청구를 시작했나요? 나는 그것이 무료라고 생각했다. 이것은 새로운 정책이 아닙니다. Epic은 학교로서 대규모 학생을 보유하고 있기 때문에 이러한 서비스와 제품의 간접비를 학생들에게 합리적인 가격으로 유지하기 위해 손상된 기술에 대한 요금을 부과해야 합니다. 과거에는 청구를 간과한 경우가 있습니다. 앞으로는 이것이 문제가 되지 않을 것입니다. 다른 질문? 다음 주소로 자산에 문의하세요. 자산@epiccharterschools.org | 405-749-4550, 내선 455
