Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

At SSIS, we promote an environment that helps develop intentional uses of technology, healthy digital habits and deep thought. In addition, student safety and security are of high priority.

Grades 5 – 8 students use Apple iPads that are managed by the school. These devices have restricted online and app access during school hours (08:00-15:40). To support individual family needs, we release device restrictions after 15:40 and on weekends, giving Grade 5 – 8 parents the responsibility to remotely monitor and manage their child’s device using the free ScreenGuide app. The HowTo below shows how to setup and use the parental controls.

• ScreenGuide HowTo:
  • Setup (install, create account, add devices)
  • Hide & Show iPad Apps
  • Filter Web Content on iPad
  • iPad Remote Lock
  • Settings for Screen Time Balance
  • Customize iPad Restrictions
  • Remove iPad Password
  • Lock in App
  • iPad App Access Configuration
  • iPad App Analytics (learn about the apps your child is using)
  • Setting Notifications

Please back up important data like photos and documents before bringing your device to the school. We need to erase it to manage it, and we can’t be responsible for any data loss.
