ISED - laptop insurance in a 1:1 environment

Dear ISED,

I know this topic has previously come up on the ISED listserv, but I have
a specific question regarding laptop loss/theft insurance for one-to-one.
. .

How do you address loss/theft insurance when the school-provided laptop is
included in the tuition and NOT a separate expense?
Does your school insure them or is it the responsibility of the parents to
insure them (if desired)? If the latter, then what happens when a laptop
is lost or stolen? . . Are the parents sent a bill for replacement cost
of the laptop?

Thanks,
