Wow! What a great project! Do you have any photos you can share with us? I think a green distance learning lab is amazing-- talk about wave of the future! What is H Smart board technology? If you don't mind me grilling you. hahaha. And, what made Nichols decide to go in this direction? I live right near there and wonder if there are any local resources I could tap into for my own home. =)
