Hold down on both the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears. When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of the buttons. This “reset” fixes a lot of iPad issues and may help boot the device.


I know you said you charged it, but if the iPad does not boot up after a few seconds, try charging again. Be sure to use a known good charger and cable. After letting it charge for at least thirty minutes, try repeating step one. Your iPad should boot up fine.


If those steps don't work, I'd recommend a wipe and restore with iTunes (I hope your teacher has a backup).

Connect one end of the USB cable into your computer, but leave the other end disconnected from your iPad. Press and hold BOTH the Home AND Sleep/Wake button for about 10 seconds. When the Apple logo appears, let go of the Sleep/Wake button but keep holding down the Home button. While continuing to hold the Home button, connect the iPad to the USB cable connected to your computer. Wait a few seconds. When you see the Connect to iTunes screen on your iPad, let go of the Home button.

You can then use iTunes on your computer to restore the iPad.


Hope this helps.
