2024/2025 TECHNOLOGY ORIENTATION FOR GRADES 6-12
The BPS Middle and High School Technology Orientation for 2024-2025 (Grades 6-12) provides essential information for BPS families on the 1:1 iPad Learning Program in Burlington. All students and families in grades 6-12 should watch the Technology Orientation video and read the iPad Statement of Responsibility.
This orientation video includes details about:
- NEW for 2024-2025 BPS iPad Care Program
- Support for educational technology
- The importance of your child's Google account and password
- The district's Mobile Device Management System
- Essential apps for learning including Google Classroom and Google Workspace apps
- The district's commitment to protecting student data and privacy
New iPad Care Program for Grades 6-12 iPads:
- Students must report any damage or loss of iPad to their homeroom teacher
- Homeroom teacher will place a technology support ticket for the iPad
- BPS IT Department will replace the damaged iPad (if deemed accidental)
- Student/Parent/Guardian will be responsible for a $50 deductible upon every accidental damage incident
- Parents will be informed via ParentSquare
- BPS will no longer be offering an optional insurance program for iPads so there is no need to sign up for iPad insurance
- Full financial responsibility ($400) for any destruction or vandalism of an iPad and keyboard case deemed malicious by the school district as well as loss of the device
- Families don’t need to do anything right now. The only time you will need to take action is if you receive a ParentSquare notification that your child has a damaged iPad. You will then receive instructions on how to pay for the $50 deductible for accidental iPad damage so that your child will receive a replacement iPad.
- Families will also be notified if any damage is deemed to be malicious or caused by vandalism
