As a rural district, we do not want our students’ educational experiences defined by where they live, said Sharon Kirk, superintendent of schools, DuBois Area School District. We have extraordinary teachers, and by supplying them with Plato Instructional Solutions, we are supplying them with another high-quality tool that expands the academic reach we offer our students.
The product will be used in applications across the district including virtual schools, classrooms, home-based learning, individualized instruction and alternative education. Plato Learning CEO Mike Morache said the flexibility of the program facilitates this diverse implementation.
Under the agreement, DuBois Area School District will implement the full Plato Learning K-12 instructional suite delivered via client-hosted Plato Web Learning Network, along with professional development to train their teachers to effectively integrate educational technology into the DuBois curriculum.
