iPads are coming home tonight! Please set rules/boundaries! Use should be in a common area (not bedroom). Know their passwords. Monitor social media...limit usage. Take care of the iPad/cord. Ask about classes and work. The iPad is a learning tool, not an entertainment device!

Tuesday (tomorrow) is picture day, so don't forget to bring your smile to school!
