Mobility Makes a Difference
Katy Independent School District was determined to put digital resources in its students’ hands, working to provide them with leading-edge education through bring-your-own-device programs. No one said it would be easy.

Preparing Students for the Future Through Innovation Today
A legacy Wi-Fi network and 450 new Chromebooks did not play well together at Morris Elementary School.

That is when the school enlisted a Cisco partner to design and deploy a new solution able to handle the traffic. Now, students are using their Chromebooks to engage with new teacher-approved e-books, interactive typing tutors, online resources, and more. Find out how Cisco helped improve the Wi-Fi experience and enabled a successful one-to-one program.
