- 07/23/14 12:51 AM
Why is CCISD such a great school district to have your children attend?

Hopeful to come into fruition by 2015, CCISD will have a tablet on a 1:1 level for every student grades 3-12. The reason behind this move, is to digitalize textbooks, saving the district up to $4 Million a year. It’s amazing how fast technology has grown, where schools can provide economically-friendly tablets for textbooks, homework assignments, and even virtual classes!
