Polar Awards Technology Grant to Area School

Polar Communications recently awarded Dakota Prairie Public School in Petersburg, North Dakota a $2,500 Technology Grant. They will use this grant to implement their project submission, “You Can Fly.”

The Polar Technology Grant Program provides funding for PK-12 schools enabling them to purchase hardware, software, contracted services, and other technologies that target student achievement through technology integration. Applicants were required to submit their proposals, including an overview of their project abstract, goals, narrative, and budget information. All accredited PK-12 schools in Polar’s service territory were eligible to apply. This is the 14th year Polar has provided this grant program to the schools we serve. Over $65,000 has been given to enhance technology in the classroom. We are proud to invest in our schools and the community, providing value for the future!
