A local TV station in Lubbock, TX is reporting that a grant through Texas Tech will be providing laptops to teachers and students in Floydada Junior High school, a Lubbock school. The short report also says that five other school districts will also participate in the grant. From that report:
On Friday, Texas Tech announced the partnership which includes Floydada ISD, Apple Computer Inc. and the Region 17 Education Service Center. The $350,000 grant will give each student and teacher at Floydada Junior High a lap-top computer to use in the classroom.
You can find the full report at KCBDis Web site, which we found through our friends at Macworld UK. TMO is working to get details on the grant.
