My daughter, Jaci, has a laptop that the school provides. Last year the whole high school had computers given to them for the year. The parents had to pay $35 for insurance in case of breakage and misc. This year the school even got computers for the middle school. I think just the 7th and 8th grades. It's been really nice for her to do her school work on. The school has filters and a lot of things are blocked but the kids can e-mail each other when they have spare time. I can send e-mails to my daughter during the day too, plus she can use it when she's at home.
What a neat idea! Maybe more schools will follow this example!
