First off, I would like to thank parents for keeping their student’s iPads well charged for the next day of school! Also, I want to thank all of those, teachers and parents, that helped getting the student’s iPads all updated for MAPS testing. Being updated kept the process of testing going smoothly and eliminates a lot of unnecessary issues.
Please remember that we have filters on our Wi-Fi, so there is no need for restrictions when the students come to school.
A couple of things to keep in mind to provide common maintenance to your student's’ iPad:
1. Turning off the iPad when you are finished using it, allows it to reboot and start up fresh
2. Deleting apps that are not being used anymore, is helpful by keeping storage available on the iPad
3. Using Google Drive, Photos, Docs and Sheet apps keeps storage available, which allows the iPad to run sufficiently
4. Refrain from eating and drinking around the iPad
Avoiding More Damage
When a student's iPad has the slightest crack, it should be sent down to the LTA for repairs as soon as possible. Fixing the small cracks is important in order to avoid larger, spidering cracks. Also these screens are glass, so it can be potentially dangerous for the student. A few basic ways to avoid cracked screens is to avoid dropping, sitting, hitting, throwing any iPad. Another basic way is to make sure the students' cases are in good shape, and that they are always on the iPad.
If students are having any issues with their iPads, please have them come down to the library for help.
