Hi there Tolbertp,
Thanks for posting! It looks like you have an issue with your iPad and it may be stuck on an Apple logo. You're in the right place for help.
To double-check, did this happen after your iPad restarted? Does it seem to stay on the Apple logo, or does it turn off/restart at random?
As a starting point, see if the "Check your software" section of this link helps: If your iOS or iPadOS device restarts or displays the Apple logo or a spinning gear unexpectedly. If it doesn't, see the steps in this link next: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen
Keep us updated on how it goes.
Kind regards.
