| Free Laptops Making Difference At Liberty City Elementary |
| Posted by: Susan Einhorn |
| Liberty City Elementary School is the kind of place where no matter how hard teachers and students try, the crushing obstacle of poverty is extremely difficult to overcome. Most, if not all, of the kids there had no computers at home, no internet access, until the Miami-Dade School District launched the “Jumpstart: Connect@Home” project last October. The District gave out free laptops to every child in grades 3 through 5. That’s 135 computers, plus “Hotspot” devices to provide connectivity. |
