The focus of the conversation will be how Innovative uses of technology are the "GREAT EQUALIZER" for students in poor, isolated, rural America.

We will examine successes we have had at our school including specific students who now have "possibilities" they've never had. We will also discuss other "possibilities" in education, technology, and innovating our youth!
