Here at Delhi Central School District we currently have 16 classrooms equipped with a Smart Board and a ceiling mounted digital projector.

So far we are very happy to say that we firmly believe that exposure to interactive whiteboards positively impacts student achievement. During the time period that we have used Smart Boards in our classrooms, we have noticed an increase of our student’s interest in classroom studies, as well as a significant increase of student participation in the classroom.

In the near future we will be equipping 14 more classrooms with a Smart Board and a ceiling mounted digital projector and hope to equip more classrooms as soon as the funds allow for this to take place.
