Kudos and major high-fives to the Zeeland Public Schools. Starting with the 2011-2012 school year, students in the Zeeland school system between 3rd grade and 12th grade (approximately 1,800 of them in all) are being provided with a free iPad to use in the classroom and for all of their school work. Sayonara to carrying 50 pounds of text books in a backpack – thank goodness.
This is an amazing program and innovative idea that clearly takes Zeeland’s education system to the cutting edge nationally.
