Open the Box Day Area teachers receive new computers as part of pilot program
Christmas came early this year for some teachers at Monta Vista and Homestead high schools. In fact, it came last Wednesday in a banquet room at Compaq Computers as 35 teachers opened boxes containing brand new laptop computers. The teachers who volunteered to participate in the "Open the Box Day" ceremony are the first wave in the implementation of the pilot laptop program. The district's extended goal is for every teacher and student to have a laptop by 2004. More
