WCPS families, as you gear up for Back to School shopping, we want you to be aware of an important change. iPads across the school system have been refreshed to a newer model and are ready to go for students' return this September. The new model now requires headphones and earbuds to be USB-C compatible, so be sure to check that compatibility when purchasing from your child's school supply list. All lists have been updated to reflect this compatibility; view them online at https://tinyurl.com/WCPSSupplyList. #WeAreWorcester
