We feel that our hardware is finally catching up to our vision at Country Day. The Surface Pro 3 devices - with touch, Digital Ink and full notebook functionality - remove all constraints for users and allow IT departments to manage, maintain and support them efficiently and effectively. That is why we switched to tablet PCs in 2003 and have gradually been improving our hardware ever since - striving for the best combination of speed, power, portability, battery life and modalities. Our focus is on empowering every user with a device that can do it all. We like to act as a lab for what is possible when a school deploys the right hardware - devices that reduce the constraints on integrating tech in the classroom and that let teachers focus on pedagogy, not technology. In 1996, Cincinnati Country Day School was the first school in the nation to adopt a one-to-one notebook program for grades five through 12. If there were a better device, we would be using it. One thing led us to be early adopters: our desire to provide the most powerful teaching and learning environment possible. Cincinnati Country Day School deployed 230 Surface Pro 3 tablets this school year.
