The School District of Waukesha provides you with a managed AppleID that provides students with 200G of data storage in iCloud. This is your "professional Apple ID" (similar to your school district gmail account) and will be with you your entire career in the School District of Waukesha. The managed AppleID follows the format of username###@a.waukesha.k12.wi.us. The School District has the ability to reset the password for these accounts. If you experience issues with your AppleID, please contact the HelpDesk at 262-970-1073 or your building's iPad support person.Students should share their username and password for their Apple ID account with their parents but should NEVER share this information with anyone else. Although your parents and teachers will help you understand the appropriate use of your iPads and your Apple ID account, it is ultimately your responsibility as students to manage your account and your ipad according to the iPad Pledge. Using iCloud to Secure Data on Your iPad
Safeguard your important data with an iCloud Backup
In a self-managed model, such as the School District of Waukesha uses with its 1:1 deployment of iPads, students need to actively protect their important academic data stored on the iPad. This is easily done using iCloud. As always, we encourage students and parents/guardians to set this service up together to ensure that the data is properly protected. In the event of hardware failure or damage, actively backing up academic data on the iPad will become a critical lifeline for students to avoid losing school related work and resources.
