Lewis Cass Schools is excited to give back to the community with our excess equipment program. We put out an interest survey last year and the feedback was an overwhelming yes on the buyback. What this means to you ? If you have a student that attends Lewis Cass Schools this gives you the opportunity to buy a computer or iPad. If you are interested in purchasing one or more of the devices the buyout cost is $200.00 for the Mac laptops and $100.00 for iPads. Each iPad/Macbook’s condition varies from device to device and you will have the opportunity to look at the device before purchasing, but all are in working order. There is not a warranty on any of the laptops or iPads, they are sold as is.
Please click the Getting Started button above and fill out the information in the form so you can be added to the queue for purchase. It is a first come, first serve basis. Your payment is due in your corresponding school by check or cash on or before April 10th by 4:00 pm if you are wanting to purchase an iPad or laptop. Anyone not paid by this time will be removed from the buyback list.
