One to One Digital Learning Program
Last year, every third through fifth grade student in the district received an iPad for his or her educational use during the school year. These devices will increase students' engagement in the classroom with the integration of digital learning by our teachers. This year the program has expanded to include grades six through eight, and will further expand in early 2016 to include grades kindergarten through second.
