USD 446 is beginning to issue new Apple computers to students to improve learning resources.

 

Independence High School principal Kurt Seiler says that nearly 90% of the student body have already completed the necessary steps for the new computers, and expects more to follow suit.

 

Seiler says he has enjoyed the gratification from helping these students succeed, and thanks the school board for their investment in the quality of education the disctrict provides.

 

Other items of business at the December school board meeting were the discussion of the new Early Learning Center. Multiple architecture pitches for the new building will be presented to the board next month at the January meeting as that project continues to move forward.

 

The March board meeting has been moved from March 13th to March 20th as well, due to the district being on spring break.

 

USD 446 School Board meetings take place at 7 p.m. on the second Monday of each month from the Community Room at Independence High School.
