Rising 6th Grade Parents: You may be aware aware that Holy Comforter middle school students are required to bring a laptop to school each day. But, did you know you can purchase a computer for your middle schooler from HCES? Advantages of this offer include:
Flexible payment (monthly or one time)
3 years warranty and accidental damage insurance included
HCES Tech staff oversee repairs, parents don’t have to lift a finger
No cost for repairs!
Your student is guaranteed to have a working computer 100% of the time, for three years.
I would like to encourage you to take advantage of this offer. Computer problems can cause stress for middle school students but purchasing your child's laptop through HCES enables the HCES Tech Team to provide service and repairs quickly. Students can remain focused on school work instead of dealing with computer issues.
