Under Governor Edward G.
Rendell’s vision and
leadership and on the
platform for
infrastructure
established through the
E-Fund and E-rate,
Pennsylvania is
currently building
high-speed connectivity
to all classrooms to
enable 21st Century
education to flourish in
Pennsylvania. These
connections will make it
possible to support
timely and global
communication and
collaboration in
classrooms.
Teachers in the 9th
Grade Academy will be
the first teachers in
the high school to
receive all the
equipment and training.
Each teacher in the
Academy will receive a
Promethean electronic
whiteboard, a laptop, a
printer, and a
projector. Math
and English teachers
will receive 300 student
laptops to be used in
the classrooms.
They will also have use
of digital and video
cameras for content area
projects. This
grant will be funded for
three years; other high
school content area
teachers will be
receiving the same
equipment as the 9th
Grade Academy in the
next two years.
