Technology Upgrades Coming To Lakeview Schools

A portion of $35 million bond funds are going to wire several Lakeview schools for technology upgrades like Chromebooks.

ST. CLAIR SHORES, MI — School might be out for summer, but that doesn’t mean work isn’t still being done in Lake Shore Public Schools. Specifically, $35 million worth of building renovations are being done at the high school, Kennedy Middle School and Rodgers Elementary. Technology upgrades and HVAC system changes highlight the work.

Lake Shore Public Schools Superintendent Joe DiPonio said that the bulk of the work at the high school is related to installing air conditioning and to improving the electrical infrastructure to support student Chromebooks as the district moves to one device to one student this fall, as well as better wi-fi.
Similar work is being done at Kennedy Middle School, where students will also receive Chromebooks in September, and at Rodgers Elementary School. Elementary students are not receiving devices this year, but will in the future.
