For Students and Parents

The iPad 1:1 program operates under the Scarsdale School District's Responsible Use, Student/Parent Agreement for District-owned Mobile Devices, and Social Media Policies.

As discussed throughout this site, the program is designed to provide students with a computing device that meets -- and whose use is expected to be consistent with -- the school's and district's educational goals, both within the Middle School and at home. To this end, the school and district expect students to meet standards for use that include, but are not limited to, the following:
