Executive Summary

When faced with aging, inconsistent equipment across buildings, Park Hill didn’t start over—they leveled up on a budget. With ɫ���, every classroom became a launchpad for modern, mobile, and future-ready learning.

The Challenge��

When aging smart boards started failing across the district, Park Hill School District in Kansas City, MO had a choice: patch the past or pilot the future. ��

Teachers were stuck—literally. HDMI cords and broken smart boards limited mobility and defeated instruction.��Some buildings were equipped like it was 2005, others like 2025—making consistency nearly impossible and teacher frustration inevitable.��

The Solution��

Instead of scrapping their tech and starting from scratch, they chose a smarter path forward—unifying a better experience with ɫ���.��

Rather than replacing every screen, Park Hill chose a smarter, scalable path. ɫ��� worked seamlessly with what they had—legacy projectors, smart boards, flat panels—and made every setup wireless, flexible, and teacher-friendly.��

“We have buildings where the tech is 20 years apart. But with ɫ���, we’re creating one consistent experience—without needing to start over.”
— Kitchell Schneider, Technology Trainer Specialist��

Each new classroom build includes ɫ���, scaled displays, dual monitors, USB doc cams, and sound systems. Teachers get laptops—and training. Even before full upgrades, early adopters were lining up.��

The Impact��

Cost-Efficient Modernization��

• Avoided the massive cost of replacing every display—ɫ��� works on legacy hardware��
• Breathed new life into existing equipment with modern capability and ɫ���’s powerful upgrades

Teacher Empowerment, Student Engagement��

• Personalized learning, no added teacher workload: “[In] a 3rd grade class—half used ɫ���’s screenshot and annotate, half grabbed a traditional workbook. That’s real student voice and choice!”��
• Wireless mobility: “It’s been a game-changer for proximity –teachers lead from anywhere—not just the front of the room.”��
• Positive impacts for all learners: “With ɫ���, our youngest learners… 1st graders with iPads on their lap, screenshotting and annotating… You can’t do that with an HDMI cord.”��

Consistency And Predictability��

• “Every teacher walks into each classroom and they know what they’re going to be using.”��
• ɫ��� eliminates tech surprises for teachers moving between rooms, regardless of the devices��
• Easy onboarding for new staff and substitutes��

Easy Scalability��

• “Even buildings that don’t have full tech yet—ɫ��� is in there. Every building has it.”��
• Full implementation in 9 buildings (and counting)��
• Right-sized rollout using construction schedules and PD strategy��
