App Request Procedure
This form is for free and paid apps that need to be added to the self-service option on the student iPads. Paid apps will need to be reviewed and approved by the technology committee and/or administration.
Every attempt will be made to complete requests as quickly as possible. All apps should be requested 1-2 weeks before anticipated lesson.
Please note we must follow the format of pushing apps by grade level only. This will be the quickest and easiest process to deliver apps to students. There will be very few class exceptions where apps are installed for a single classroom/group. We will not be installing apps per student.
Some Guidelines for App Requests
- Test the App on your teacher iPad first.
- Make sure there are no ads or personal information collected by the app from the student .
- Make sure the app meets your instructional goal.
- Make sure it does not require an ongoing subscription. If it does, a building funding source may need to be provided.
- Must qualify for VPP program. The technical dept. will check this. Apps that do not qualify can not be distributed.
