If you are interested in applying for free and reduced lunch status, please visit https://www.lps53.org/nutrition. The application is on the left-hand side of the page and families must reapply each year starting July 1.
IMPORTANT: If your device has any damage or missing cables, please have the students let their teacher know at the elementary level or someone in the LMC for the secondary level so the issues can be resolved before the claim process starts in July.
Using JAMF Parent to Control Student iPads
The District's device management program has an app that can be used to control the student iPad from 4:30 pm to 6:30 am M-F and all day on Saturday and Sunday. Restrictions can be applied that will allow things such as time of day use, only allowed apps, etc.
Please note the following:
- The instructional video gives an example for JAMF School and JAMF Pro. The District utilizes JAMF Pro.
- You do not have to setup locations. You will only setup locations if you want different access at different locations.
- The login QR code can be found in the Self Service app on the student's iPad by clicking the icon in the top righthand corner.
