FLIP CAMERA INCENTIVE: Here is a great offer....flip cameras for educators two for the price of one. Four cameras can be ordered per teacher. The objective of the flip cameras is to get the students to use them, not the teachers filming the kids. The cameras are very easy to use and come with a USB port built in for easy sharing. Hint: If a school purchases these cameras, it would be a good idea to register on school tube which gives five gigs of free storage.

WE’RE A WINNER! A kudo to Carl Swenson and the CSD Tech Team! “Congratulations on winning this year's AppliTrack Award! Your districts, and five other districts, are the first recipients of what will be an annual award. We received over one hundred submissions from school districts across the country. After a review process by our Advisory Board, your submission stood out as not only unique, but, more importantly, able to be replicated by other school districts similar to yours. After all, the primary goal of this award is to highlight school districts that have successfully implemented AppliTrack in a manner that best supports the goals and mission of their school district.” Very kind regards,
Keith Westman, Ed.S.
Vice President of Sales and Marketing, General ASP Former Principal, Director of Technology, Teacher, and AppliTrack User
