Recent News

Tim Bearden (North HS Principal) and I recently attended an educational technology workshop in Dearborn. During the workshop, we saw many of the items of hardware and software that other school districts around the state are using. For example, Brandon Community Schools (Ortonville, south of Flint) have implemented the use of interactive whiteboards across half of the district's classrooms last fall, with the remainder to be updated next fall. These pieces of technology help create the atmosphere for increased student engagement and interest.

We are hopeful of getting at least a few units for demonstration purposes into our high schools. This is just one of the examples of the technology that is out there.
