When the Klein Independent School District in Texas embarked on a 1:1 technology program, it did so thoughtfully, methodically, and with a firm commitment from the top.

“To have the level of technology we have is pretty unusual, and I attribute it to the vision of the district’s leadership, and support of our community,” says Karen D. Fuller, chief technology officer for Klein ISD. “Looking ahead, we are completely committed to our 1:1 program. It’s not an option. We’re committed to supporting teachers, students and the technology itself, and we depend on HP to deliver technology that will help us succeed.”

A long-time HP customer, Klein ISD has standardized its 1:1 program on HP Tablet PCs, most recently the HP EliteBook 2730p Notebook PC with tablet capabilities.
