16 904 Juarez Laredo, Texas Ph Fax Executive Director for Academic Accountability & Compliance Carlos Rios Dr. A. Marcus Nelson Superintendent of Schools TO: Dr. A. Marcus Nelson Board of Trustees Jose R. Perez, Jr. President, District 7 Hector J. Garcia Vice President, District 6 Dr. Cecilia M. Moreno Secretary, District 5 Trustees Jose A. Valdez Trustee, District 1 Jesus Martinez Trustee, District 2 John Amaya Trustee, District 3 George M. Beckelhymer Trustee, District 4 FROM: Carlos Rios Miguel Muñoa Flor Ayala SUBJECT: (1) Leasing/Purchasing Student Laptops (RFP #11-070) (2) Windows Platform versus Apple Platform DATE: February 16, 2012 The following is in response to an inquiry regarding the value of leasing student laptops as opposed to purchasing student laptops. This memo also addresses the consideration of moving from a Windows platform to an Apple platform for our student laptops. Leasing/Purchasing Student Laptops (RFP #11-070) In order to provide the most informed update, LISD obtained a quote (attached) from our vendor for the lease of laptops and further discussed two types of leasing options with different LISD departments. These options are discussed below. 1. Personal Property Tax ($1 buyout): A $1 buyout lease is simply a financing agreement for a specific term. The equipment title is transferred at the beginning of the lease and there are no property taxes because Texas municipalities are tax exempt. This would be considered a capital lease and the use of federal funds would not be allowed. 2. Fair Market Value (FMV): FMV leases are traditionally considered operating leases and usually are recognized as operating expenses. $1 buyout on the other hand is considered a capital lease and may be considered line items in the capital budgets. In both scenarios it was concluded that leasing the student laptops was more expensive than purchasing the student laptops. It was concluded, however, that leasing laptops would be a viable option if the district did not have the necessary funds to immediately acquire the number of laptops desired. If this was the case, leasing of laptops would only commit the district to an immediate third (⅓) or a 1

17 fourth (¼) of the total necessary investment. However, LISD currently has sufficient funding for the purchase of the student laptops. The use of federal funds versus the use of local funds is an additional reason why leasing of laptops is not recommended for the present purchase. The Federal Grants Application Guidelines discourages the use of federal funds for debt services (lease-purchase). More importantly, the current 1:1 laptop initiative provides supplemental educational services. As such, federal funds may be used for this purchase. However, federal funds appropriated for this purchase must be encumbered by June Entering into a leasing contract would only allow LISD to use a portion of federal funds and would require that local funds be used to carry out the terms of a lease as well as for future purchasing phases on the 1:1 initiative. Unfortunately, the use of local funds, beyond the 1.2 million dollars already allocated will disqualify federal funds from being used in the future. Therefore, in order to use and continue using federal funds for this initiative, LISD needs to comply with the supplement not supplant provisions attached to federal funds. The Supplement, Not Supplant Tests provided below further explains the supplement/supplant disqualifications. The Supplement, Not Supplant Tests 1. Test I: Required: Is the program or activity that the district wants to fund required under state, local, or another federal law? If it is, then it is supplanting. 2. Test II: Equivalency: Were state or local funds used in the past to pay for this program or activity? If they were, it is supplanting. 3. Test III: Non-Federal Programs: Are the same programs or activities being implemented in other schools that do not receive federal funds AND are these programs and activities being paid for with state or local funds? If yes, then this is supplanting. Windows Platform versus Apple Platform The Technology Department developed the specifications for the RFP, in partnership with the TTIPS campus principals. As a result, a committee was formed to evaluate different computer manufacturers and operating systems. There was active participation from several manufacturers including HP, DELL, APPLE, LENOVO and ACER. Committee members evaluated the units based on a variety of factors, including size, ruggedness, battery life, etc. Other factors considered were ease of use, familiarity of the staff to be able to support students with the use of the device, and the support for some of the systems that students would be accessing and using. At the conclusion of the meeting, the group reached a consensus to seek a Windows based device. The Technology Department has been working closely with Apple in regards to the evolution of their products and their application in a K-12 environment. While the devices themselves are comparable or better in some respects to their Windows counterparts, they also present unique challenges to deploy and support in mass. LISD is evaluating small scale applications where the Mac is a preferred device for specific instructional uses. As part of the TTIPS 1:1 initiative, however, there are several concerns with regards to our readiness to support this device on a larger scale deployment. Among the chief concerns is the lack of infrastructure to support, manage, and maintain Apple specific products for our students and staff with the same level of fidelity that we do for our current 13,000 Windows based devices. In order to bring parity to the level of support for Apple devices, the department is continuing to work to assess the level of investment required to develop the infrastructure, professional development, and training required to be able to adequately support these devices. 2
