iSchool is made possibly through a legislation that created the Smart School Technology Program. “Some legislation ran last year in a session that set up a pilot program and the legislature appropriated the millions of dollars it took to put this in to play,” said Utah House Speaker Beck Lockhart. William Nixon, caiman and CEO of iSchool Campus, says Dixon is the first public middle school to become a certified smart school. That means iPad technology is available to every student in the classroom.“We are taking these to K through 12 and educating them how to put technology to use for their benefit for their future. It’s a whole new paradigm in learning. It really is the future,” Nixon said. Jarod Sites, principal at Dixon Middle School, says that technological programs like iSchool are inevitable.
