- Thursday, May 26 -- collection of "trickling" devices/accessories -- This is the FINAL day to gather ALL devices and accessories from students and teachers.
How can you help prepare students for turning in their devices?
- Back up wanted files: Students (and teachers) need to use OneDrive to back up their documents directly from the tablet. This is a great option for ALL students (especially rising high-schoolers) as students will have their OneDrive accounts through 12th grade. See videos below about how-to back up files in OneDrive. If you rather send these videos to students' tablets (via your playlist), just ask me for the mp4 version!

Q: What fees are associated with student tablets or chargers at the time of check in?

The student will not be charged for damaged devices unless this is their third offense ($35 fee). If a charger is not turned in upon check in, they will be assessed a $30 fee. Students will NOT be charged for stylus or earbuds. If a device is purposely not returned (refusal to return), the fee is $275. Students can pay for any associated fees with Ms. King.
Q: If a student does not have their tablet and accessories on collection day, what do I do?
A: Have the students return the item(s) to the media center (to Ms. King) as soon as possible. Any associated fees will be voided when the item is returned.
