June, 2012
Greetings!

We hope you are having a safe and happy summer. Here are a few items of note we wanted to share with you. 
 
Superintendent Update
Superintendent Update Dr. Bob Morrison discusses the new 1:1 iPad Initiative, the opening of the Center for the Performing Arts and shares highlights from the graduation ceremonies in the latest Superintendent Update video. 

High School 1:1 iPad Initiative
At the May 22 Board Meeting our Board of Trustees approved the purchase of iPads for all high school professional staff and students. We are working on a plan to get these devices to teachers and other professional staff members as soon as we can; but, we do not know how quickly the order can be processed and shipped.  
The plan to distribute the iPads to the high school students once school starts in the fall is being developed but is not finalized. Read more...
