Split SOCSD board vote will allow graduating seniors to purchase school-issued computers
The Starkville-Oktibbeha Consolidated School District Board of Trustees approved a policy, with a 3-2 vote, allowing graduating seniors the option to purchase their SOCSD issued computers used during the school year. The policy also says if specific SOCSD devices currently issued to students are not allowed to be sold due to existing state or federal laws, a comparable device which can be sold will be made available.
Prices for these computers will be $1 for students who provide a document of acceptance into any two-year or four-year college or university or $75 for students not providing acceptance verification.
