Personalized Learning
Everything in the iPad AUP, as well as
1. I will take good care of my iPad. 2. I will use my iPad in ways that are appropriate, meet SMRs expectations, and are educational.
3. I will apply Philippians 4:8, whenever I am using my iPad: Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.
Parent Responsibility
1. Routinely monitor students use of the iPad at home. 2. Make sure your student charges the iPad each night and brings it to school each day. 3. Understand that if your child comes to school without it, its like a book left at home - you may be called to bring it to school.
Parent Responsibility
4. Do not attempt to repair the iPad or clean it with anything other than a soft, dry cloth. 5. Report any problems with the iPad to the school. 6. Discuss your familys values and expectations regarding the use of the Internet and email at home.
