Central Elementary Designated an Apple Distinguished School
Central Elementary School is pleased to announce it has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished School for the 2023-2026 program term.
Central Elementary was selected for this distinction based on its commitment to continuous innovation in education and using Apple products to create exemplary learning practices.
“At Central, we use our technology in a wide variety of ways,” explained Central Elementary 5th grade teacher Heather Stillion. ”Not only has it empowered our students to learn using the latest technology, but it has also made our teachers stronger and challenged all of us to grow. Central has benefited tremendously from adding technology to our daily instruction. We are preparing our students for careers that do not even exist, yet.”
