> I don't think kids should have chrome books, or any type of laptops in school

Our eldest has had a school-issue iPad, along with the rest of his class, for a couple of years now.

As a parent I'd suggest that, despite being basically issued "for free", they're a very mixed blessing, since they were given out I can count on one hand the number of pieces of work his class have done on the iPad where the device was of benefit.

The number of times my son has reported one of his classmates getting into trouble due to messing about on iPad in class easily numbers in the hundreds...

If the school decided to take all the iPads away tomorrow I wouldn't be bothered in the slightest.
