** __New Apps to Try __ **
//From Sheila Burris- Principal of the Middle School// As new things come up, I'm trying to keep a list with a brief description to make it easier for all of you to review/find new apps. Some of these came from a recent article I read and also the Apple catalog. We can discuss these at our 1/2 day session on the 23rd. If you like any of them, we certainly can get them.
