How to Return your District Laptop/Tablet or Cell Phone for Departing Staff

BUFFALO PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT  

LAPTOP, TABLET AND CELL PHONE RETURN PROCEDURES

STAFF

The District Protocol requires that all staff departing from employment must return any District equipment to the appropriate department/location.  

District owned equipment should not be left at the school/department or be given to another employee.    If an employee does leave the device in the care of a supervisor or other employee, an IT  work ticket should be submitted requesting for the device to be picked up and returned back to the appropriate place.   

Each employee requesting a device must receive proper approval. Therefore, laptops/tablets and cell phones are non-transferrable and should remain under the care of the employee to whom they were issued to until it is returned.
