Administration and Board Members

The problem is teachers need to reach students of all levels. Finding a common ground among them would help meet that need.

Xbox is known to all levels of students. The consequence of using Xbox in the

classroom could be astronomical.

Xbox has taken the nation by storm. It is time for it to take the classrooms also.
