Fulton schools leaders are expected at a meeting Tuesday to provide an update on the system's planned roll-out of new technology devices for students.

The school district announced last year it wants to give students mobile devices like tablets or small laptops to take home in an effort to boost classroom learning.

The devices were expected to be rolled out in about 20 elementary, middle and high schools, with up to 20,000 given out by the end of the last school year.

The district hopes to equip all middle and high school students with the devices by 2017. For students in kindergarten through fifth grade, more devices will be put in classrooms. Fulton leaders would like all elementary students to have access to the devices eventually, and be able to bring them home.
