Dear MISD Parents/Guardians

I want to take a moment and personally apologize for the long wait times families have experienced during device pickup. I understand your frustrations, and I want you to know that we are listening and have spent the last several days devising a new plan to make the process run more smoothly while keeping our students and staff safe. We are doing this by providing a dedicated drop off and missing device report location, increasing pickup locations, adding additional days and extended hours, and by streamlining the documents necessary to pick up a device. 

Starting tomorrow, Monday, August 10, we will have five locations for device pickup. Each campus will have a corresponding pickup location.  The chart below shows which campuses will pick up at which location. This information is also available at mansfieldisd.org.

PICKUP HOURS

Monday: 1 p.m. - 7 p.m. (high school only)

Tuesday - Friday: 9 a.m.- 7 p.m. (all levels)

Saturday: 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. (all levels)

 

Although the first day of school is August 12, we want to assure you that students who have not yet picked up their device will NOT be behind.  As always, we will start the school year making connections and establishing processes.

In order to expedite your experience, we have also added a dedicated drop off location for those students who still need to return their device or file a missing device report with the MISD Police. Please note this must occur prior to being issued a new device for 2020-2021.  Devices need to be dropped off at the Technology Department, located behind Wester Middle School, Monday - Friday from 9 a.m. - 7 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m.- 4 p.m. 

Please remember that students must have a completed 2020-2021 registration in Skyward in order to receive a device. You will need your students’ ID number with you. The Student ID number(s) is the only documentation necessary to pick up a device. If you don’t know your student’s ID number, contact your child’s campus, and they will be able to help you. 
 

Students can also choose to use their own device instead of using a district-owned device. All programs and apps needed for online learning can be accessed on any device with Internet connection.


Once again I want to sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that we have caused. I am hopeful that this updated process will help us expedite getting devices to your student in a safe manner. 

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call 817-299-6300.

Thanks for your continued patience and support as we navigate this unprecedented start of school. 
 

Sincerely, 


Dr. Kimberley Cantu

Mansfield ISD Superintendent
