Blackwell Elementary and Blackwell Middle School receive $80,000 for OETT Grant

Posted Date: 05/13/2022

Blackwell Elementary School and Blackwell Middle School were two of 18 schools to receive a $40,000.00 OETT (Oklahoma Education Technology Trust) grant. Blackwell Early Childhood classrooms will be receiving Osmo's in each classroom, along with Apple TV's so they can airplay with their IPADS. Blackwell Middle School is a 2nd Generation recipient (due to receiving the OETT grant in 2008-2009) receiving E-Sports equipment for their building. Only one other school prior to our MS had received this grant for E-sports. Along with the E-Sports they will be adding a digital streaming platform so they can use video production to broadcast and stream the sport. Both the Elementary and Middle School will be receiving building-wide Professional Development on how to authentically use technology within their classroom and curriculum. Thank you Mrs. Hankins and Mrs. Agee for writing these grants.
