Washougal School Board members receive instruction on their new iPad2 devices from technology director Lester Brown, right. It is anticipated that the board will transition to completely paperless meetings within the next two months.

Instead of sifting through approximately 70 pages of documents during meetings, Washougal School Board members will be able to access needed information in seconds.

The district recently purchased five iPad2 devices for all five school board members at a cost of $3,833. It will cost the district approximately $530 more the first year than the traditional paper method, but will save $2,771 the next year, and the same amount the following year.
