Students at 5 Baltimore schools to get free take-home devices

BALTIMORE —The public education digital divide is about to narrow a bit for some Baltimore City students.

Thanks to media giant Verizon, students and staff in five of the district's elementary-middle schools will soon get free take-home devices.

The Baltimore Design School is one of five campuses where students and staff members will be getting new technology.

The classroom scene is about to change across the district, now that Baltimore City has become part of the Verizon Innovative Learning Program.

Headline Baltimore:
Pawn shops see startling uptake of Chromebook tablets!
School aged recipients abandoned the devices when they realized they were being used as real time live spying interfaces
transmitting high quality digital audio and video feeds to internet cloud storage when powered.
Where can I get my free Crimebook?

Northwest Woodsman: Since we are talking of Baltimore, I can guarantee that this Pedomarxist democrat plan wimp end up as a disaster with the equipment disappearing on the street in exchange for drugs and other taxpayer dollars going into the corrupt blacks that run the entire city. What could possibly go wrong?

Who do you really think is paying for the luxury? Not Verizon - Verizon users. It should in their plans. Costly. Throwing money at a lost cause again. Pay your teachers more, help the gain respect again.
