The purpose of the grant cycle is to provide placement of iPad tablet
training labs in fifteen qualifying libraries in state funded K-12
schools and community and technical colleges in Washington State. The
training labs may be used to support a variety of trainings and other
services of the library including, but not limited to, providing
educational support, resources and access to online resources. 

 

Granted equipment will include ten Apple iPad tablets, a Bretford
PowerSync charging tray and covers for each tablet. 

 

Award of grants will include emphasis on geographic disbursement across
the state and the ability of the library to use and maintain the
equipment. For K-12 schools, preference will be given to schools with
the highest level of participation in the USDA National School Lunch
Program (NSLP).

 

This grant cycle is funded with LSTA funds and includes equipment
providing access to the Internet. All qualifying K-12 schools in
Washington State providing certification of compliance with the
Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) may apply.  CIPA certification
is not required for participation by community and technical college
applicants.
