Enfield Public Schools Student/Parent iPad Usage Agreement Parent/Guardian Responsibilities Your son/daughter has been issued an iPad to enhance learning. In addition to all items specified in the Handbook, it is essential that the following guidelines be followed to ensure the safe, efficient, and ethical operation of this device: § I will supervise my child's use of the iPad at home and promote digital wellness through monitoring screen time. § I will make sure my child recharges the iPad battery nightly. § I will make sure my child brings the iPad to school every day. § I will discuss the Enfield Public Schools’ expectations regarding the use of the internet and email at home. § I will not attempt to repair the iPad, nor will I attempt to clean it with anything other than a soft, dry cloth. § I will report, to the school, any problems with the iPad as outlined in the Handbook. § I will not load or delete any software from the iPad. § I agree to return the iPad to school when requested and/or upon my child's withdrawal from Enfield Public Schools. Student Responsibilities Your iPad is an important learning tool and is to be used for educational purposes. In order to take your iPad home each day, you must be willing to accept the following responsibilities: § I will bring the iPad to school every day. § I will keep the iPad in its protective case at all times. § I will recharge the iPad battery each night. § I will treat the iPad with care by not dropping it, getting it wet, leaving it outdoors, exposing it to extreme temperatures, or using it with food or drink nearby. § I will not lend the iPad to anyone, not even my friends or siblings; it will stay in my possession at all times. § I will not use my iPad with personal email accounts other than those assigned by school. § I will not remove programs or files from the iPad. § I will not give out personal information when using the iPad. § I agree that any other electronic communication should be used only for appropriate, legitimate, and responsible communication. I will practice good Digital Citizenship skills. § I will keep all accounts and passwords assigned to me secure and will not share these with any other students. § I will not attempt to repair the iPad. § I will return the iPad when requested and/or upon my withdrawal from Enfield Public Schools. § When using the iPad at home, at school, and anywhere else I may take it, I will follow the policies of Enfield Public Schools, especially the Student Handbook and Acceptable Use Policy, and abide by all local, state and federal laws. In the event that the iPad is damaged, lost or stolen under this plan, restitution will be expected. It is important to remember that our Mobile Device Management Tool, Mosyle, is used on the device and has the ability to track the location of the iPad (location will be indicated on a map), as well as remotely control a sound notification on each device. In the event of loss or theft, it is very important to notify school personnel quickly (before the battery drains). The school district will treat a lost iPad as stolen and will support law enforcement/authorities in tracking the device. I have read, understand and accept the parent/student responsibilities enclosed in this EPS Technology Handbook.
