• Enfield Public Schools is not responsible for any data loss that may occur.
• Before the end of the school year, be sure all content is stored in Microsoft OneDrive.
• The Enfield Public Schools District makes no guarantee that their network will be up and running
100% of the time. In the rare case that the network is down, the district will not be responsible for
lost or missing data.
Wireless access in and outside of school:
• All Enfield Public Schools usage expectations and policies pertain to the device when used on
school and on home networks.
• Devices will connect to home or public wireless networks, if one is present.
• Many public destinations, including public libraries, offer open or pass code settings, which
provide patrons with WIFI access. These options can provide internet access away from school.
Content filtering:
• Enfield Public Schools provides content filtering in compliance with existing district and state
policies, both on the school network and on external networks.
• EPS Acceptable Use Policies define content considered inappropriate in a school setting.
These guidelines are also to be observed when the device is used outside the school setting.
• This filtering does not absolve the user from attempting to access unauthorized or
inappropriate sites on the internet.
• No content filter is capable of preventing access to all online content that is not school related.
Content filters provide a degree of protection to the user and the device. The user assumes
responsibility for not accessing content that is either inappropriate or non-school related whether
blocked by a filter or not.
• Attempts to bypass or disable the content filtering on a device will result in disciplinary
consequences or restriction of a student’s technology privileges, as outlined in the Student
Acceptable Use Policy
iPads Left at Home/Undergoing Repair
In special circumstances, Enfield Public Schools offers loaner iPads to students. These loaner iPads are
located in the Enfield Public Schools Central Office, dependent upon availability and approval by school
staff. If students leave their iPad at home, they are responsible for getting the course work completed,
as if they had their iPad present. If a student repeatedly leaves their iPad at home, they may be subject
to academic and/or behavioral consequences, as specified by school administration and faculty.
Charging Your iPad Battery
iPads must be brought to school each day, fully-charged. Repeat violations will be handled in a manner
developed by school personnel, according to the school and classroom policies. iPads should be
charged in the evening, as automatic iOS updates will occur overnight while device is plugged in.
EPS Installed Apps/Software
The software/apps originally installed by EPS must remain on the iPad in usable condition and be
easily accessible at all times. From time to time, the school may add software applications for use in
a particular course. School-specific licenses for apps may require that the software be deleted from
iPads at the completion of the course or when transferring from one school to another. EPS uses a
Mobile Device Management Tool, Mosyle. Our Technology Department remotely manages all Apple
devices.
