At Ka'ohao School, we are very fortunate to have 1:1 devices available for students to enrich their learning.
It is very important for parents and students to understand that these devices are managed by the school and therefore have certain restrictions in place. Teachers have designated the apps that are required for studnent learning on and off campus. You will not be able to download or add and apps to the devices or change any settings. You are required to charge devices nightly so that the devices can receive commands from the management system.
We expect our students to show the following traits when using devices for learning:
RESPECT - I will have clean hands when using my device and will treat it gently, never putting it on the ground. I will not eat or drink when using the device.
LEARNING - I will use the device as a tool for learning and only use school-approved websites and apps to communicate with my teacher(s), access information, and complete assignments and projects.
SAFETY/RESPONSIBILITY - I will focus on being an ethical user of technology. I will use appropriate digital citizenship traits while using a device. I will not use the device to express disrespectful of harmful messages to other people. I will not look at inappropriate images or other inapproprite information on the internet. I will keep my devices charged with the provided charging cord and cube and will return them in good condition. I, or my parents, will be financially responsible for any replacement costs due to any damages that may occur while the device is assigned to me. ($49 for 1st broken screen or device, $100 for subsequent occurance(s). $10 for lost or for broken charging cord and/or cube.)
If there are any damages to the device, or it is not working properly, I will report it to the school immediately by emailing Ms. Lemes and Dr. Lee (mlemes@kaohaoschool.org, dlee@kaohaoschool.org).
I understand that by signing this form, I will be responsible for the Ka'ohao issued device that is assigned to me.
