Minnesota’s St. Paul School District is preparing to deploy tens of thousands of iPads to students in 37 schools around the city.
Rather than purchasing the tablets outright, the school district will lease them from Apple. The cost of the program – which also appears to include more than 1,000 MacBooks – will begin at $5.7 million per year for the initial rollout and rise to around $8 million once all 61 schools in the district are outfitted.
