Editor's Notes
All forms are available for electronic signature on district, high school, ms and klager home pages at the bottom. The computer lab will be available on the night of Open house for you to access and sign the documents electronically. Drop all payments off to the front office of each building
Go through the forms – Insurance – light pink – if you have 3 or more children in the district, the insurance fee is capped at $90; also the free and reduced schedule applies to the insurance. Please ask the ladies(y) at the white table by the office if you have questions about any of this. We will need a light pink form for each student. Only fill in the student name and your name and the device serial number which is at the bottom. The device serial number is not on the outside of the cover, that is our internal number. The students have to go through the set up in order to get the serial number. As soon as they get to the home screen of the iPad they will be able to access the serial number. The insurance is for one year only, the cost is $33 and the reverse side of that form describes what is covered. Go through the forms
All the forms will be available online on our home page under iPads: 1 to 1 link – documents. We will dismiss the students after the presentation to the media center to get their iPads checked out to them. If parents wish to go to the classrooms with the students for the set up – feel free to do this. We do ask that you allow the students to sit down at the table/chairs/desk so that they can set up the iPads. If parents would rather go to the media center or stay in the commons and get the paper work filled out, they can do that. There are a few Aup’s that student need to sign so while waiting for their iPad, you may want to get that taken care of.
