STERLING – Keeping students on the forefront of technology has helped Sterling High School win recognition from one of the world’s top technological innovators. SHS is one of 300 schools worldwide to be named an Apple Distinguished School, for its 1-to-1 initiative rolled out last year that gives students 11-inch Apple MacBook Air laptops to use in school and at home. “They will come here [in the next few weeks] with a plaque and banner and they will also present to the school board,” Principal Jason Austin said. “We will also be featured on their educational website.” The school also will be hosting other districts looking to implement a 1-to-1 initiative. “We have agreed to host visits and show off the great things our students and staff are doing on a day-to-day basis,” Austin said. SHS was recommended for the award by Apple staff who have worked with the school, including Scott Meech, a K-12 development executive at Apple who made a site

doing the best in these five areas. “They are saying these 300 schools worldwide are doing this better than anyone else.” The high school might not be the only school in the district to get recognition from Apple. Challand Middle School students began using Apple iPad Air tablets this year, and like their older counterparts, can use the devices in school and at home. “They’d be eligible,” Everett said. “We are just starting out the 1-to-1 iPad initiative at Challand. They are still learning and growing.”
