"Cranston School will soon be receiving the $20,000.00 free technology awarded to Mrs. Kinsman last February from Samsung and The Learning Partnership.  Grades 3/4 students will be participating in a research project about the use of technology in schools as part of this project.  Students will be bringing home three letters in hard copy on Tuesday, October 28, one describing the project from our partners, one describing the project from Mrs. Kinsman and one permission form allowing your child to participate in the project.  Participation requires the student and his/her parent to complete a brief online survey prior to the project beginning and one following student use of the tablets.  Please ensure your child's participation is assured by signing the permission form and returning it to the school no later than THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30. 2014.  

Once you have signed the permission form, please take a moment to participate in the pre-project online survey as soon as possible - before midnight, October 30/14. There is a STUDENT survey that your child will need to take and a PARENT survey that you will need to take. Both are very short!
