apple id lock undone

Hi so I work at a charter school and my job is too e waste electronic devices from families who have left the school. We have perfectly fine Ipads but the problem is that they have a icloud activation lock on a majority of them. Is it possible to get these undone at the genius bar?

Is it possible to contact the applicable family and ask them to complete the steps in the 2nd part of this article?


Activation Lock - Turn off Find My iPhone 


You can try with the paperwork you have, but I'm not sure that will work.

You can get them unlocked at an Apple Store. Take the device(s), proof you are an authorized representative, the original purchase receipt(s) with the serial number, and a photo ID to the nearest Apple Store.

or contact Apple ID Support. They will need to see the original purchase receipt/paperwork also.
