THE WOODLANDS, Texas - The Woodlands Christian Academy received official notice that they had been selected as an Apple Distinguished School for its use of technology to create a blended digital learning environment for students in Pre-K through 12th grade. The Apple Distinguished School designation is reserved for programs that meet criteria for innovation, leadership, and educational excellence and demonstrate Apple’s vision of exemplary learning environments.

The selection of Woodlands Christian as an Apple Distinguished School highlights the school success as an innovative and compelling learning environment that engages students and provides tangible evidence of academic accomplishment. Students use iPads, MacBook Pros and MacBook Airs in combination with interactive white boards and Apple TVs in the classrooms to research, collaborate and create original works that are shared around the world.
