Microsoft® HoloLens Brings Augmented Reality (AR) to the Classroom

In 2019, Laurel School’s incredible community successfully raised $107,431.20 dollars to bring Microsoft HoloLens technology to the classroom during the Gator Bash’s “Call to the Heart” paddle raise. At that time, Laurel had forged a unique relationship with Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) to incorporate augmented reality into the classroom via Microsoft HoloLens. In fact, Laurel was the first school in Ohio to partner with CWRU in this way. The funds raised ensured Laurel could acquire the necessary hardware and software and more importantly, provide the opportunity to our students to learn programming and to be active collaborators with faculty in the development of new applications for use in K-12 classrooms.
