Please contact the GC School District with this information. I would love to see the GC School District go ONLINE with the school work.
My thoughts, math, english and subjects like that online. Science, lab classes and the like in school. Students take courses online and some in school. Could you imagine the tax dollars saved.
Also, require each student to purchase a Kindle or the like for textbooks eliminate backpacks and hardbound books. And the school district eliminates book fee and then they download the textbooks on the students electronic reading device.
Great ideas.. I will probably be dead and gone before it is ever done but if I were a student I would much rather carry a Kindle then 5 textbooks any day. I wish our school would catch onto technology. The President did mention it in his speech maybe the Democrats can get our schools headed in the right direction.
