Raleigh County schools shift from textbooks to iPads
Raleigh County public schools will issue iPads to all students in grades two through 12 in the upcoming year and have first graders sharing iPad Minis. The district plans to phase out hard copy textbooks over five years, starting with an electronic social studies text. The Apple agreement totals about 7 million dollars, funded by reallocating existing funds, with about 135 dollars per student.
