CLIFTON, NJ, March 25, 2010 — ClassLink, creator of award winning technology solutions, is pleased to announce the district-wide adoption of ClassLink Inquiry for all North Kansas City Schools. Inquiry is an instructional technology decision support tool that will enable North Kansas administrators to analyze real-time usage of all their software and hardware. This capability to create, review, and analyze customizable utilization reports is especially important to North Kansas as they are currently implementing an ambitious one-to-one laptop program for their 5,600 high school students.

And ClassLink’s Inquiry is an integral resource that will help us analyze both the success of this initiative and identify any modifications that may be needed,” said Janet Herdman, Executive Director, Information and Technology Services. “Inquiry will allow us to analyze and determine the effectiveness of both the laptops and the software by providing us comprehensive information on their usage.”
