iPads and Your Return to In-Person Learning
Charging your iPad nightly is the best thing you can do to ensure your success at school. Rooms are equipped with power strips, but they tend to fill up quickly. Do yourself a favor and charge regularly and always have your OPS charger with you.
Also, please remember to always carry your iPad in your backpack or school issued bag.
