Because you cleaned out your school locker yesterday, any belongings that you bring with you to school today or tomorrow must be carried in a DeLaSalle cinch bag. Remember, keep the school-issued combination lock from your locker over the summer. Keep your lock in a safe place and write your combo down or put it in your phone. If you lose your lock over the summer you will be charged $5 for a new one at the beginning of next school year.

All students are required to go through the end of the year iPad checkout on Friday, May 26 between 11:00am and 12:30pm in the Main Gym (9th grade), LL Gray Gym (10th grade), or Schulze Learning Lab (11th grade). Students may turn in their iPad early to the Tech Office before their last final if they no longer need it for testing. Students must allow at least 15 minutes for the iPad return process.

All students must turn in their school issued iPad with the school issued iPad case. The iPad Return Checklist – found in the Islanders course in Canvas – must be completed, signed by a parent/guardian, and turned in with the iPad on May 26. Students should turn off their passcode and sign out of their iCloud and iTunes accounts before going to their assigned area. It is important to note that you will be charged the deductible/repair cost for broken devices as well as replacement cost for any missing items. Families who chose the Deposit Protection Plan will be charged for all damages to the iPad and accessories not covered under warranty. If you are not returning to DeLaSalle for the 2017-2018 school year, you must turn in the Apple charging/sync cable and power adapter provided when you received your iPad.

The campus will be closed to students after 12:00pm on Friday. Afternoon transportation routes will leave at 11:30am that day, following the iPad return. Thank you and have a great summer!
