The Citizens of Decatur Help Put Technology Into Schools

The "Power to the Classrooms" campaign allows the citizens of Decatur to contribute to a program that will help fund classroom technology. This innovative program allows residents of Decatur to donate money to the Decatur City Schools technology program through their utility bill. In partnership with Decatur Utilities, residents can donate as little as $1.00 per month to the "Power to the Classroom" project. These funds will go directly to improving technology in the classroom. Examples of planned improvements include the purchase of classroom computer systems, RAM upgrades, CD-ROM drives, additional software and expanding Internet access to the classroom. With these funds, schools can continue the process of improving the quality and quantity of technology within the district.
