iPads: If you received new iPads back in December, we discovered a technical glitch this week. Unbeknownst to any of us, the Raz-Kids app was deleted from these iPads. Joe has put Raz-Kids back on the new iPads. I'm letting you know this as this is not an expected behavior. If you see other apps missing from your iPads, please let us know so we can redeploy the app to your iPads. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. (Always good to have a plan B just in case...)
MCAS Website: I have updated the HH MCAS website to reflect 2018 information. Please let me know if you'd like me to add further details or if you see any errors. You may wish to bookmark the site for easy access.
Printers: I continue to see lots of black and white printouts at the color printer. Please take a moment to change to a black/white printer if you do not need to print in color. Thank you for helping to care for our environment and equipment.
