1:1 Device Insurance

McKeesport Area School District has partnered with CPS device insurance. CPS delivers high quality device insurance directly to parents through a self-service portal. This allows a quicker and more streamlined process for parents to sign up and have devices repaired for the student. Insurance is optional but highly recommended for students who expect to take their devices home with them. Students who do not carry insurance will be liable for the full repair or replacement cost of the device. Every student is instantly eligible upon enrollment into McKeesport Area School District or MASD Pre-K Counts. iPads and Chromebooks are eligible for insurance through CPS. There is no need to remember student numbers or building enrollment to sign up. To access the portal, visit the CPS website.

Insurance is entirely self-serve through the CPS email, k12@cpscentral.com, or through their support phone line: 800-905-0443. The MASD Technology Department is unable to check the status of any insurance claim or coverage. All inquiries need to be processed through CPS.
