How many computers were stolen from your school district?

Posted on November 24, 2009 by Dissent

Okay, I don’t know if this is some kind of dysrecord, but in an AP story on a Detroit teacher accused of pawning one of the district’s laptops, it says:

More than 500 district computers have been stolen over the past six months.

I wonder what the numbers are like in other major urban school districts. Anyone know?

    I bought a pallet of “used” pcs from an area auction and found out when i got them they were from the local school district… the H.D.D.’S were full of info on what school/teacher they came from… i erased all the info and trashed the drives. Just wanted the mother boards. Thanks CCSD!
