I-Pads In Action

The original memorial fund established in John's memory was at his alma-mata elementary school, Mother Catherine Spalding School in Helen, MD.  Earlier blog entries such as here and here gave periodic updates as to the accomplishments achieved with the funds.

Due to the earlier generosity of so many, the fund is still going strong.  Keeping with the intent of the fund to place technology in the hands of the children in the classroom, it was especially exciting to hear that it was recently used to introduce I-Pads into the curriculum for grades 1-8.  Just recently, JW's mom & dad had the opportunity to see the I-Pads in action in the 7th grade science class as well as the 1st grade science lab.  It's hard to realize that even though JW somehow always had the latest gizmo, he never had the opportunity to own an I-Pad himself.  Nonetheless, without a doubt, the big geek is extremely pleased that a lot of little geeks are being fostered in his memory.
