BRAINERD PUBLIC SCHOOLS SELECTS CLASSLINK SOLUTION

School System Implements Universal Learning Suite™To Meet District Needs

 

WEEHAWKEN, NJ, August 14, 2006 -- ClassLink, Inc., a leading technology provider for kindergarten through grade 12 classrooms, today announced that Brainerd Public School ISD 181 in Minnesota has purchased the company’s Universal Learning Suite for its K-4 grades, which serve more than 2400 students.Brainerd, like the majority of school districts nationally, is facing the multiple challenges of legacy equipment, the need to provide increased access, and increasing technology demands.

“ClassLink has made it possible to create a fully functioning primary educational environment that empowers both students and teachers with only a “clic”. The extraordinary part of this solution is that the implementation of the ClassLink Universal Learning Suite creates a formidable total cost of ownership (TCO) plan that extends the District’s hardware and software budgets to accommodate more technology in the hands of our early learners, and does so in a time of budget reductions,” said Pam Dyson, Director of Media Technology for Brainerd Public Schools.

ClassLink’s Universal Learning Suite is a modular learning platform which transforms how schools use and manage computers in the classroom. With the ClassLink Universal Learning Suite, teachers, students and administrators enjoy seamless access to individualized learning environments from any computer in the school, community or home.

The Brainerd School District implementation is comprised of the complete suite of software programs included in the ClassLink Universal Learning Suite, which includes ClassLink LaunchPad™, an electronic gateway for students and teachers; ClassLink OnTrack™, a curriculum mapping tool and compiler of student work tied to rubrics and standards; and ClassLink Information Console™ (CLiC™), designed for school technologists to manage their instructional technology infrastructure. “We welcome Brainerd to the ClassLink family", said Berj Akian, CEO of ClassLink, “We’re looking forward to helping the district achieve its technology and instructional goals.”
