Middle School

Welcome to the D-E middle school, and welcome to your new iPad. Since your classmates have been using iPads in school for the past year or two, there are a few things you need to become familiar with in order to get up to speed.

The videos below will help you learn how your iPad works and show you some tricks about how to be as productive as you can with your new device.

Getting Help:

If you run into trouble during your iPad setup, you can get help by emailing help@d-e.org or calling our Help Desk at 201-227-3177 (open weekdays from 8am to 4pm).

Students can also browse all of our help documents at http://help.d-e.org .
