[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC was in the middle of working on school work and the browser shut saying that the administrator has made a system-wide change that disables some old profiles. DC is logged in with their APS account and was working in GoogleDocs. Anyone else seeing this?

Couldn't agree more!
That said, I just heard about similar things for the first time today re Wakefield. Students could not get into their google accounts or check their gmail email. This precluded access to senior project work, college essays, corresponding with colleges during application/acceptance processes, etc. Apparently Spotify was recently blocked as well.

I am all-in on the bell-to-bell cell phone ban; but this seems silly. Surely Spotify is not a major source of harm to our teens during the school day. Are kids typing emails to each other all through class - which is exactly what my friends and I did manually on paper back in the 80s? [/quote]

Doubt APS wants the Liability

The only way they can be sure to avoid all liability risk is by not providing school-issued devices.
