Many of us love our Apple devices, anything ranging from an iPad, to a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, or your iMac or Apple TV. We are purchasing and seeing more and more of these devices in our offices and classrooms, and they help our students grow and learn, and allow the rest of us to do our jobs efficiently.

We encourage you to keep purchasing Apple products for your classrooms and offices. However, any Apple device needs to be purchased from Apple Computer through the purchase order process for educational usage per the State of Utah contract. We may not always get the correct discounted price when purchased from the Apple Store or other retailers such as Best Buy or Costco. It also causes problems for our Information Systems department to get the devices in the Device Enrollment Program (DEP) and the Mobile Device Management (MDM) for tracking and updates. When purchased elsewhere, iPads are not getting engraved with the school district's name (we get this free through Apple on the state contract), and the device management licenses are not being purchased with them.

The District's Amazon Business account will no longer allow purchases of these products, and P-Cards are not to be used for computer/technology devices.

When you need to purchase Apple devices, please contact Tonya Hodges in the Purchasing Department, and she can assist you with quotes from Apple for the devices you need. No additional quotes are required for your purchase! Simply enter a requisition in Skyward with the Apple quote attached, and you are ready to go. Tonya can be reached at 567-8706 or at tonya.hodges@jordandistrict.org .

The Salt Lake County Health Department has seen a recent increase in norovirus activity and is asking schools to be proactive in their approach to prevention and their response to cases of illness.

The most effective approach is four-pronged:

Hand Washing: Remind staff and students to engage in frequent, thorough, hand washing.

  • Wash hands regularly
  • Washing with soap and warm water, and physically scrub for at least 20 seconds.
  • Hand sanitizers are not an adequate replacement for proper hand washing with soap and warm water. Use in addition to hand washing.

Cleaning & Disinfecting: Standard cleaning and use of effective disinfecting practices are sufficient to remove or kill viruses.

Protect Yourself: “If it’s wet and it’s not yours, don’t touch it!” When cleaning areas soiled by vomit or diarrhea, custodial staff should wear protective equipment and follow universal precautions.

Stay Home: When Ill: Keep ill students and staff home from work and school for the duration of their illness.

Attached is a PDF file you may use to encourage proper protection against the spread of illness.
