TCSS Students and Families,

This past month, your student(s) received the iPad that will be used for assignments and school work for the rest of the year. 

Take a moment to review all the guidelines in the Student & Family Handbook found at www.tcss.net/connect.

Optional Fee for iPad Protection Coverage

The last day to pay the optional fee for iPad Protection Coverage depends on the enrollment date of your student(s).

1. For students enrolled on or before September 8, the last day is October 6.

2. For students enrolled on or after September 11, the date will be four weeks from the date of enrollment. 

Should the optional fee be declined, there will be no option to purchase the iPad Protection coverage at a later date, and all fines will be assessed at full value as outlined in the Handbook.

Using Digital Devices Wisely

Finally, we wanted to share some valuable resources from Common Sense Media that can help you, your student(s), and your family to be wise in the use of digital devices. 

Take a moment to review the "Media Balance & Well-Being" tip sheets to help jump start these important conversations with your student. Please click on the link below that corresponds with your student(s) to get these valuable resources.
