App Info
Funding Source & Use Priorities
Title vs. General FundEmail Infinite Campus (our student information system)• Grades• Attendance
Initial Setup You must have a MacBook to supervise
and set up iPads. A cart is convenient for setup, storing, and charging iPads. (We use Bretford.)
Create an institutional Apple ID to supervise the iPads.
Download Apple Configurator from the App Store.
Initial Setup Using the MacBook, prepare
one iPad. Set up the iPad exactly how
you want each iPad. Create a backup of the iPad. Connect the MacBook to the
cart and prepare all iPads with only a wi-fi profile.
Finally, supervise all iPads with the backup profile and numbers.
Touch Every iPad
If your school location wi-fi differs from the one used for setup, enter on each device.
Log in one time to iCloud in Settings on each device.
We added label stickers to iPads with their numbers.
What We Did Wrong
It was recommended to use to add a “non-delete” profile.
Forced a setup “part deux” day – single iPad at a time reset.
