I used to work at one of their elementary schools! I'm glad to hear they
are getting creative; there are some serious poverty issues in that
county. They just started what they're calling a technology charter
school. I hear it's going well, and I'm guessing this initiative is a
continuance of those ideas. Way to go, Edward!

I had an excellent meeting with an Asst. Superintendent of Bartholomew
County schools in Indiana. They plan to give every student a computer
that will cost less than printed textbooks. We will discuss contracts
to write the replacements for textbooks, funding sources for those
contracts, and alliances across the US and the world, as described at
http://www.earthtreasury.org/wiki.cgi?ReplacingTextbooks
I will be contacting all of our actual and potential partners (on that
page and elsewhere) on this ASAP. Our next meeting is scheduled for March 4.
