SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Santa Fe Public Schools is spending $2.4 million to buy Apple computers to help improve student math scores through Web-based instruction.
The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that the computer order includes about 1,270 iMacs, 155 MacBook Pro laptops, 870 iPads and 21 Apple TVs.
The new technology will be installed in 19 classrooms and laboratories at the district's three public high schools and in two classrooms at an elementary school by mid-September.
Carl Gruenler, the district's chief financial officer, says the district has about 1,400 outdated personal computers that cannot support upgrades to the much-needed Windows and Microsoft operating programs. Some of these computers will still be used in the elementary schools.
