Approval of his contract is on the agenda for the June 25 Board of Education meeting.

Free Wireless Access Now Available for High Schoolers

Starting in August, AUSD will be providing free wireless service to high school students who aren't able to access the Internet at home.
 
The internet "hot spots" are being provided through a grant from the 1Million Project Foundation, whose mission is to help high school students reach their full potential by giving them the technological tools they need to complete their homework.
