Cleaning iPads
The technology department is aware that student iPads tend to get a little more dirty around this time of year. If families are interested in cleaning the students’ devices, please follow the steps below.
Please spray an electronic safe cleaner (like Windex or a lens cleaner) on a cloth and wipe down the iPad until it is clean. Please don’t use a harsh cloth like a paper towel as this might scratch the screen. Please don’t spray the cleaner directly on the screen.
Once the screen is clean, please wipe off any excess moisture from the screen. Also please be careful around the home button as this is the only open spot that moisture can get directly to the screen.
Student iPad pictures
The technology department is asking families to help reduce and monitor the students’ photos that are on the iPads. There has been an increase in the number of students’ photos, especially ones that are not school related. Please help by checking students’ iPads for these photos and deleting them and then deleting them from the deleted folder. Help us teach the students good digital citizenship skills by using the school iPad for school related pictures only.
