Channel Five in St. Paul, Arkanas has a good piece on how the local high school has rebounded thanks to its technology program. Parents in Brooklyn, NY consider a new $1million proposal to upgrade the gear in several schools, according to the Brooklyn Eagle. And these Killam School district educators in Massachusetts get props for impressing the school board with their tech initiatives. Big picture is fine, but actual reports on successes are more satisfying! —Kevin Hogan, Content Director
