The News & Observer reports,
On Tuesday, Superintendent Eric Becoats announced the system wants to buy Apple iPads for teachers and students at two low-performing schools.
The plan is part of how Durham Public Schools propose to spend $4.5 million in federal Race to The Top money. It still needs state and federal approval.
If approved by the feds, the district will distribute iPads to students and teachers at W.G. Pearson Elementary and Lowe’s Grove Middle School.
Is this really the best use of these funds?
