Although having your own laptop would be cool, it is unnecessary. If each student was given a laptop, they could break them. Most would go on bad sites, causing viruses. Buying 300+ laptops would be really expensive too. Don't give students the laptops unless you want this to happen.
If we were to get a free laptop, it could be broken very easily. The kids don't always use the computers correctly. Most electronics (like ipods, phones, etc.) owned by teenagers, could be dropped and damaged. We could also not remember it when going other places, like going to a cafe, or park, and leave it to be ruined or to get stolen. With these examples it would be easy enough to agree to the fact that laptops are vulnerable to damage and loss.
A high majority of the students have a Facebook, Myspace, or go on some other site. Many of these may not be protected, causing viruses. As we all know viruses are bad. They can dump all your personal information, like essays you haven't turned in yet, special information, etc. Viruses also cause the Internet to go insanely slow. Viruses are bad and they will wreck the computer.
What are there, 300+ kids in this school!? That would be thousands of dollars to buy all of the laptops. It's so much money that the kids would have to pay a fee to rent the laptops, and not everybody can afford it. All of the school's money can't go toward just buying the laptops, we would need to fund raise a lot, and it's just too much. Laptops are just too expensive.
I'm sure you can agree now, many things could go wrong with buying these laptops. Laptops are very breakable. There's not protection for all the bad sites. Also, they're too expensive. Laptops at BMS are uneeded and unecessary, don't encourage this unwanted necessity.

P.S. This could happen to your laptop!!!
