WASHINGTON– Malden Elementary will receive five computers as a part of the U.S. Senate’s “Computers for Schools” program, U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill announced today.

“It’s critical for our students to have access to technology in order to succeed in school, and in today’s economy,” McCaskill said.“I’m hopeful these computers will help provide more students the opportunity to learn and master the skills necessary to be future leaders in Missouri and beyond.”

In addition to Malden Elementary, the following Missouri schools have been selected to receive computers:

• Hamilton Elementary – St. Louis

• Manual Career and Technical Center – Kansas City

• Morgan County R1 Elementary – Stover

• West Plains High School – West Plains

Each school will receive five HP8200 Small Form Factor computers no longer being used in Senate offices. As part of the program, each participating Senate office distributes 25 computers to schools in their home state.
