CMS parents - We need your help! Some of our students are having trouble getting back and forth from school with their iPad chargers. Some students leave them at home, and some say they have lost theirs. Please take a moment this evening and help them locate what they need to keep their iPads charged and ready to use. This will be very helpful in avoiding unnecessary class disruptions. If a student has lost a charger or just the cord, replacement costs are as follows: Charger - $25, Charger cord- $10 Please let us know if we can help ensure your student's assigned iPad is ready to use. Thank you!
