During covid BOE gave iPads to kids who got services. I have those iPads but never got any letter or anything where to return it. Does anyone know any info?

Are you sure you need to return it? Maybe they are not expecting it back.

Yeah I'm pretty surprised no one followed up (yet?) These things are expensive and I'm sure there are new generations of public school students who could use them.

I think the wireless connection on ours got cut off recently. I had to log into wifi to update duolingo, which my kids have been using.

I got 3 of them and also still have them. We enjoy that we have extra devices. They had Internet when we got them, but a few weeks ago the Internet stopped working. We just hooked it up to my home Wi-Fi.

ETA - about 2 years ago I got a very confusing email about returning the devices. I called them and they said it was a mistake, they were only asking back for the ones from high school graduates. Mine are all for younger age kids.
