Mineral Wells ISD Assistant Superintendent David Tarver highlighted programs and new opportunities occurring at each campus.
Tarver started by discussing a technology platform that students have available in the library where students can access e-books throughout the summer.
âThey can continue to make those advances in their reading levels through the summer,â he said. âSome kids are really close to taking those next steps and we want them to keep progressing.â
MWISD is now one-to-one with technology and Tarver gave the example of a 4-year-old student that was able to go to the library, build a project, take a photo of it using an application and submit it to their teacher for a grade.
