ID CARDS Each student must wear a clearly visible student photo identification card on a break-away lanyard each day at Edgewood Middle School. Replacements will cost $4.00 for an ID and $1.00 for a lanyard. Unpaid ID’s will result in school consequences. All middle and high school students will be issued ID badges. Students are not to deface the card.  Unusable cards need to be replaced at the student's expense immediately. The identification badge is to be attached to a lanyard and worn around the student’s neck at all times.  ID badges will also be used in the library for checking out materials. Students who lose or deface their ID badges will be subject to school discipline such as eating lunch last since cafeteria staff will have to enter names manually. WCS Parent-Student Handbook pg 37.

 IPAD POLICY Student iPads are the property of WCS. Inappropriate use of a school device can result in the loss of device privileges. Students must also have their iPad at school and fully charged at the start of every day. Failure to come to school prepared may result in consequences. Gaming resulting in a disruption of learning will be an automatic removal of ALL non-school issued gaming apps.

It is important that if you wish to have insurance on your IPAD, you sign up online.  The optional, but highly recommended, iPad insurance deadline to purchase is at the end of this month. OPEN ENROLLMENT IS ONLY AVAILABLE UNTIL AUG. 31ST FOR RETURNING AND CURRENTLY ENROLLED NEW STUDENTS.  AFTER AUG. 31ST, INSURANCE WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE TO NEWLY ENROLLED STUDENTS BY CONTACTING CENTRAL OFFICE.
