[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Randolph's PTA apparently just approved approximately $3,200 to buy Kindles for the K and 1 classrooms, so it doesn't seem like they're totally broke.[/quote]

Really?  Because they were able to make one $3,200 purchase that means they are just fine?  Did you not for one second ask yourself, "what are they NOT funding in order to make such a significant technological purchase?"  or "Why are they making a technology purchase like that?  Shouldn't APS be providing technology?" or "why did they determine that use of funds to be so necessary that they committed such a significant chunk of their limited budget to it?"

Do you know what effort it took for them to raise that money in order to have it to spend on one project?  While Discovery is raising $40K to provide shade on their playground?  or other schools can raise tens of thousands of dollars with one fundraiser and then conduct multiple fundraisers?

Really?!?!?[/quote]

APS provides iPads at that level, why do they also need Kindles? Can't they use the Kindle app on the iPads?[/quote]
