Dive Brief:

• The Los Angeles school board has scheduled a special meeting to review the $1 billion plan to provide iPads to every student and teacher.
• The iPad rollout has encountered problems, including more than 300 students who deleted a filter to reach unauthorized websites.
• Because of that security breach, schools have been told not to let students take the tablets home.
