Tablet PCs for Madison HS -- $650,000

MDL reports the Madison Central School Board will consider joining the Classroom Connections program at its upcoming meeting Monday, 2/12.

Madison High School would need to lease about 430 Tablets and use the computers throughout its curriculum. The cost for a three-year computer lease and other related expenses was estimated at $650,000.


$216,000 a year... hmm, laptops for every kid, or six full-time instructors (one of which could be the music position the district wants to cut)? Maybe twenty after-school tutors? Improvements to the theater? Down payment on the new gym? Hmm... we have some interesting decisions ahead of us.
