Standing Rock Indian Reservation’s Cannon Ball Elementary School was selected by Apple as one of the White House’s ConnectED schools, a federal program that partners with companies to increase high-speed Internet access and educational technology in classrooms across America. Now, each Cannon Ball Elementary School student will receive an iPad, each teacher will receive an iPad and a Mac, and every classroom will get Apple TV, as well as Apple Care for every product. When I talked with President Obama during his trip to Standing Rock in June, I stressed the immediate needs of our Native students at Cannon Ball Elementary. These resources will empower our Native students, enabling them to create, compete, and grow on a national level. I’ll continue fighting for programs like these that work from the ground up to help our Native students succeed.
