Redhawk Tales

Virtual families please return ALL IPS issued technology (computer, IPad, mifi) by no later than Tuesday, June 1st.

After June 1st - Those students who do not return their devices by June 1 will have their names turned over to the IPS Police Department for recovery. If IPS PD is unable to recover a device, the account will be sent to collections.

Cleaning of Devices and Cases

Students are responsible for cleaning their own devices and cases before returning them to school. Please use the following when cleaning the devices:

• Electronic Wipes (bleach-free) - not soaking wet
• Compress air for cleaning the crevices between keys
• Goo Gone for removing stickers from cases and devices

All students may dress down for the last three days of school next week. Attire should still be school appropriate. No ripped jeans above at or above the thighs, no crop tops, hats, or inappropriate messaging/graphics on t-shirts.

Please have students return any string instruments, methods books, and drumsticks (unless you are an 8th grader). Keep recorders in a safe place at home. Have a great summer!

The fee for the season is only $75. Register at http://brhll.com as soon as possible if you are interested. Sidener students are eligible to play, as the school falls within the BRHLL District boundaries.
