Drop-Off Procedure for iPads and Laptops

If you are sending your child to school with a family iPad it will need to be configured for use at school. Please review the following important information.

As a reminder, if you choose this option you still need to provide headphones, a case, and purchase 1 FileWave license from Senco Masslink.

Information about and instructions on how to purchase these items can be found on our Purchasing Your iPad page.

Dropping your child’s iPad off at the IT Help Desk:

  • Option A – drop your iPad off from the 8th of August.
  • Option B – drop your iPad off during the first week of school.
  • Option C – if you have purchased an iPad after the start of school, you can drop the iPad off at the IT Helpdesk at any time.

iPads will not be returned on the same day they are dropped off. iPads will be distributed directly to students in their classrooms.
