Heritage students made this stop-motion video



Heritage students made this stop-motion video




The students at Heritage Middle School in West St. Paul knew they’d all be getting Apple iPad 2 tablets to use for schoolwork. They just didn’t know when.

School staffers were maddeningly evasive when asked about this, even though they recently held a series of iPad-orientation sessions for the children and parents, assuring them the tablets would likely see the light of day before the end of the school year.

Then Principal Chris Hiti began to boogie.

Students in a gym Thursday for what they thought was a standard pep rally were agog when the tall, burly administrator bobbed his hips and doffed his sweatshirt to reveal a black T-shirt imprinted with “iHeritage.” Teachers joined him in a frenetic line dance.

And then the kids saw the unfurled banner and the answer to their big question: “Heritage iPads are here!”
