Early Ipad payments/Info (for 20-21 year):
It’s time to start preparing for the 2020-21 school year. Students will be one-to-one with iPads in grades 3-8. 3rd-5th grade iPads will remain in their homerooms. Those students will be assigned a specific device, but these will not travel home after school like the upper grades. There is a lower technology fee for these grades because of this. 3rd & 4th graders will NOT need to provide a case for their device, as they won’t be keeping them from year to year. 5th graders will keep their same device for the duration of their middle school career and will need to provide a case.
Students in grades 6-8, will be allowed to take their iPads home, but responsibility for the device is of the highest importance. Attached, you will find a copy of the iPad policy that both students and parents need to be familiar with. All students will need an iPad to fully engage and be successful in their classes, as teachers enhance their lessons to incorporate iPad technology.
Those students who currently have an iPad issued to them will check it in at the end of this school year and will be reissued the same iPad when school starts in August. The time in the summer allows our technology department to perform necessary maintenance and updates.
Each student will need to pay the technology fee BEFORE school begins in August. This ensures that each device is fully insured for the school year. Students will also need to provide a cover and ear buds/headphones (if they don’t currently have one). A cover can be purchased from the school district for $30 or you may purchase elsewhere. Every student, in grades 5-8, will need to bring their cover for the iPad on the first day of school. As you are purchasing a cover, keep in mind the correct model.
Please review the iPad policy with your student and return the form to the school office acknowledging your awareness of this great educational opportunity for our students and your plans for payment of the technology fee.
Payments can be made online at ezschoolpay.com OR mailed to SCMS
