THE GREAT 2024 IPAD TURNIN

iPads, as usual, must be turned in before you may receive your grades. Details on dates, what to turn in, policies, etc. are below.

REMEMBER:

–> You will be charged a $25 late fee if you turn in your iPad late. <–

–>ONLY YOU<– can turn in your iPad. DO NOT ask anyone else to do it.


WHEN?

SENIORS taking AP exams: immediately after your last exam.

Grades 9, 10 and 11: Exam Days [ although you CAN turn your iPad in early if you’d like.]

  • Monday May 20 before 2 pm
  • Tuesday May 21, before 2 pm
  • Wednesday May 22 before 2 pm

Grade 8: your teachers will let you know the exact day.

THE ABSOLUTE LAST DAY YOU MAY TURN IN YOUR IPAD IS WEDNESDAY, MAY 22.

You WILL be charged a $25 late fee for turning in your iPad late.

Questions? See or email Mr. Rule [who is often in DS-1].

Where?

Either DS-1 or the ARC. Watch for signs.

PREPARE YOUR IPAD
–> BEFORE <–
YOU TURN IT IN

  • Passcode to all zeros
  • AT LEAST 15% power
  • Fire up Notability and Google Photos – make sure your data has been backed up. [Check settings, or search this site].
  • You do NOT have to logout of anything unless you really want to. We’ll be wiping the device soon anyway.
  • MAKE SURE you are turning in the correct charger block. It is the Rectangular iPad block, NOT the dinky square iPhone block [and definitely not any third party blocks].
    IF YOU TURN IN AN INCORRECT BLOCK, you **WILL** be charged for a missing block [and may or may not be able to retrieve the one you turned in]. You have been officially notified.

What to turn in?

  • Your iPad in the case,
  • A charging cable [see note below]
    AND the correct charger block.

FAQ:

Missing something? 

You will be charged for the missing parts.

Is something damaged?

  • Cable – turn in the damaged cable. We treat cables as wear items, so there would be no charge.
  • Charger block – turn in the damaged block. This is also treated as a wear item.
  • Case – if the case shows UNUSUAL wear and tear or damage, you will be charged for a replacement. Standard wear and tear does NOT incur a charge
  • The stand on the case – also treated as a wear item. We do not charge for the stand being broken – but we also do not replace them.
  • iPad – if your iPad has a cracked screen or other hardware damage, you will be charged the standard amount for the repair [$200 for 2023-2024]

Notability and Google Drive – the 2023 edition

It is CRITICAL that you have your Notability notes backing up to Drive, AND in the correct format. This lets you retrieve your Notes using ANY internet enabled device, and the Notes are backed up as you create each one.

Another advantage: If you delete a note from your iPad, it does NOT get deleted from Drive.

Here’s how to set this up:
