Laptops for Every Student at Central Middle & High School

By  | 

    At Monday’s meeting the Central Community School Board voted to provide a Dell laptop computer for every student in grades 6 through 12.  Each student will be charged a $40 fee with a maximum of $70 per household.
    This program is a four year commitment of approximately $500,000 per year to lease the laptops, which are to come loaded with the software needed by the student.  Over the four year program the School System will pay just over $2 million for the laptop leases and the families of the students will pay about $300,000 in fees.
