We Need Your Permission For Your Child's Summer Device Use
We are preparing for the end of school and wanted to let you know that our Kindergarten - 5th
grade students will have the opportunity to keep their iPad/Chromebook over the summer. I have
provided some information in this newsletter about some great summer learning opportunities
that can be completed on these devices and will help keep your child engaged in some fun
learning throughout the summer!
In order for your child to be allowed to keep their device, each parent MUST let us know
whether or not you give your child permission to keep their device. A link is provided
below for you to indicate if you give permission or decline this opportunity.
PERMISSION FORM MUST BE COMPLETED BY 5/20 - 3:00 pm (only submit form one time)
5-23 2nd Grade Recognition Ceremonies 8:15-9:15

Please have the kids bring a string backpack or any light
weight backpack to Field Day. They will use this to carry a
water bottle provided by the PTA and any items you might
be sending with them. (sunscreen, hat, and snacks) If they
are going to be bringing money to spend in the concession
stand please make sure it is in a baggie labeled with their
name. The teachers will collect and hold this until it is our
scheduled time at the concession stand. We will eat lunch
when we return to Cannon in the classroom. If your child is
going to purchase lunch that day it will be a sack lunch from
the cafeteria.

Even If you DO NOT want your child to keep their device over the summer, please
complete this form, indicating that you decline. If you decline, your child's device
will be collected at the end of this school year and it will be redistributed to them
when they return to school in August. Any student who does not have a permission
form submitted will NOT be allowed to keep their device and their iPad will be
collected at the end of the year. These students will receive their device back at the
beginning of next year.
** Any Kindergarten - 5th grade student who is not returning to Cannon or other GCISD
school next year will have their device collected at the end of this school year and will
not be allowed to take their device home.
- If you have previously indicated that your K-4 child will be attending another school in GCISD next year, they will be allowed to take it home, with parent permission. In this case, these students will bring their device with them to the campus in GCISD that they will attend in the 2019-2020 school year.
- All 5th grade students who will be attending middle school in GCISD who keep their devices will bring their device with them to middle school next year.
We are very excited to be able to provide your student the opportunity to continue
learning on their iPad throughout the summer! If you have any questions, please contact
your student’s teacher.
