IPADS
Staff and Student iPads: Technology Services has tested and verified that the new iOS 11 is fully compatible with our network and iPad devices. Any staff members that have iPads, please proceed with installing the update.
To do this open setting on your iPad, select general and then push software update. You will see it ask to check for update or to download and install. The update will take about 5 to 10 minutes based on what all you have loaded on your iPad. Here is a video from Apple that also walks through the process
For Elementary campus, if time allows over the next few weeks leading into the break, have the students follow this same process. Technology will push a forced iOS update out over the holidays so we can be sure to get all our devices to the latest software level. It's essential that we stay current so we can ensure that all our programs function as intended.
Here is also a nice blog post by Kerissa about some of the new great features of iOS 11

If you have any questions, please put in a work order request!
