Apple substitutes larger laptops at no extra cost for district staff device refresh, board told
Summary
The district informed the board that Apple cannot fulfill the originally ordered 13‑inch staff devices and has offered 15‑inch models with more memory at the same purchase price; the change does not alter the approved motion or cost.
Technology staff updated the board on the district’s staff device refresh, reporting that Apple could not fulfill the originally ordered 13‑inch machines but offered a 15‑inch model with greater memory and storage for the same purchase price.
"They came back with a bigger model... it also comes with more memory and so a bigger hard drive," the district’s technology presenter said, adding that the change represents an upgrade with no additional cost. District staff and administration confirmed the purchase price remains unchanged and that there is "no change" to the motion or the previously approved authorization.
The board received the update as informational; no additional motion or vote was required.
