SUCCESS WITH ORCHARD: REAL SCHOOL STORIES

Justice Elementary, Wewoka, Oklahoma

Kelly Harrison, lab teacher at Justice Elementary, is passionate and committed to implementing technology in to the classroom. She began as an aide at the elementary school and was first to introduce students to Orchard Software. She has seen the use of technology, particularly the use of Orchard, grow and contribute to student success. “We used Orchard with our after-school program initially,” said Harrison. “Then we made it part of our curriculum. Our math scores have increased. I see progress especially with the young kids; we will use Orchard with our Pre-K program next.”
