How can I reset my PassCode?
The passcode is the code that you are prompted to enter whenever you turn on or wake up your iPad. You are required to have a passcode on your iPad. Your passcode should not be the same as a bank pin or any other sensitive ID. The district currently requires a minimum of 4 characters (this may change in the future). The longer the code the more secure it is.
If you are projecting from your iPad, please be cognizant of not entering any passcode/passwords while visible to others.
