  3. Guidelines and Standards… Setting up iPads • Contact CTS for Wireless setup. • Only run a District-Generated iTunes Account from this point forward. • There are 2 different setup scenarios: Standalone & Cart. • Never use the DCS_Guest Wifi Account! This account is not accessible and will likely be used for BYOD in the future. iTunes Accounts • Must be District-Generated through the Gmail account created by the Finance Department. • PSAT carts and a few other district carts have been set up with a generic desotocountyschools.org account and can remain unchanged at this time.

  4. Due Dates for App Request Forms The bookkeeper needs a list of approved Apps with prices by the following dates: August 31* November 30 February 18 April 29 The August 31st Due Date is being pushed to September 7th. Even Free Apps need to be added to your Request Form so that a record of what is being installed is on each device.

  8. Old Apps? No Problem! Previously Purchased Apps will be able to remain provided that… • Principal deems the App educationally appropriate. • There is a history report showing where the app was purchased in the account. • Each app has a separate license for each device which it’s installed. (**given the amount of apps that may have been purchased with a single license and pushed to multiple devices, we will work with you to bring these into compliance.)
