MP3 Players - Cheaper Options

MP3 Players - Cheaper Options

Currently, the only MP3 Players we have available in the Northside Acquisitions Store are from Apple and Creative. They range in price from $131-$388. These MP3 are AWESOME and serve their purpose...

But, some of you have voiced a need for a cheaper option!

For example, Francisco Alderete from Hatchett Elementary,  uses a cheaper MP3 Player to send home with kinder students as a listening center. His older students write, create, and read original stories for the kinder students. Francisco's only need is for a cut and dry "player." No need for multiple syncing, iTunes, or video options...JUSTa MP3 Player.

Now you have some flexibility for making those purchases. Here is the new Northside policy for purchasing cheaper MP3 Players.

MP3 Players NOT found on the Nothside Acquisitions Store may be purchased from any approved vendor found in District Contract Bid #2007-123 (for questions on this contract, please contact purchasing) and no HW# is necessary. However, those MP3 Players purchased OUTSIDE of the Northside Acquisitions Store will NOT be supported by Technology Services. In addition, any software included with the MP3 Player may NOT be installed. Please make sure the MP3 Players you want to purchase are "plug and play" (with more of a flash drive functionality). PURCHASE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION.
