Thing #7a Oh There's Money Out There

As I continue to pursue my dreams of opening my own technology development school/center/program, I am constantly researching to find new ideas, technology, and of course...funding. The beautiful thing about RSS feads is, I don't always have to do my own research. Lo and behold, within my Google Reader, I received a feed from Tech&Learning about an interesting company that I have had my eyes on for a little while. Calypson just made an announcement (April 27) that they have just formed the Calypso School First Foundation (CSFF). They plan to transform a Chicago elementary school through the Be Heard School Grant. They are outfitting a classroom with sound technology that will allow the teacher to be heard by all students at anytime, especially the special needs students in full inclusion programs.
