iPAD SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE 2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR

All students will need an iPad or an iPad mini and students in Grade 5-8 also need an iPad or iPad mini and an iPad keyboard.  If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Lowther at mlowther@stbernardine.org

 

Recommended device: 

  • ​7th or 8th generation 10.2-inch Pad - the 8th generation is the latest version of the iPad
  • Storage: 32GB+ recommended (most students have iPads with a storage of 32GB)
  • A strong, durable, robust cover that protects both the front and back of the iPad.

​ 

BACKPACKS

We highly recommend that only Junior High students use rolling backpacks.  We allowed rolling backpacks in the Spring of 2021 to help students transport items to and from home since they were not allowed to share materials with other students.  With all of our students returning to campus and walking the hallways, the rolling backpacks can actually be quite dangerous and cause an unnecessary tripping hazard.  Thank you for your consideration.
