The student will have the option to take the iPad home each evening if their parent chooses to pay an annual technology fee. In grades K-4, each grade level will have one cart of iPad Minis. The recommendation by Xx. Xxxxx was based on approximately six months of research conducted by the Xxxxxx iPad Steering Committee. The committee, headed by Tech Director Xxxx Xxxxxx and Middle School Principal Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, visited schools currently using iPad devices, participated in Apple training and other workshops, and conducted pilot studies in each of the three buildings during the 2012-13 school year.
