Students will be given an empty egg to care for in order to demonstrate responsibility before being allowed to take their school-issued tablet home. They must keep the egg safe in a provided case, store it securely during breaks and PE, and have parents sign off each night that it was undamaged. If a student's egg remains uncracked after the trial period, they will be able to take their tablet home; but any damage to the egg requires filling out paperwork, and the cracked egg must still be carried around to recognize the importance of responsibility even after mistakes.
