Alice Vail MS Student ID Update:
π’ Important Update for Families
Going forward this year, students must bring their school ID with them every day. IDs are required as part of the sign-in process if a student arrives late. If a student does not have their ID, they will need to visit the library to request a replacement.
Thank you for helping us ensure a smooth and efficient process!

Verizon Innovative Learning
The best way to help prepare your student for their school day is to make sure they bring their issued iPad and for that iPad to be charged.
Students without their issued iPad require a loaner laptop. I want to describe the loaner process a bit here for you to underscore the importance of bringing charged iPads. Leaving class to get a loaner takes time away from learning. In an effort to encourage student preparedness, your student will be asked to go to the LMC for the loaner laptop, phone you to alert you that they are using a loaner laptop for the day, and then they will receive a lunch detention. Students are responsible for damaged or lost loaners.
Again, please remember the charged iPad!
