Measure X

History

On Nov. 6, 2012, voters in Riverside County passed Measure X, also known as the Coachella Valley Unified School District Mobile Learning Initiative. Measure X allowed for the sale of bonds to raise a proposed $20.5 million (in the first phase) to fund deployment of 20,000 iPads to every CVUSD student and teacher, along with the technology infrastructure to enable students to connect and learn all day, every day. The district has unused bonds that will be sold to sustain the program over the coming years. Measure X was developed by CVUSD as a mobile learning initiative, which recognizes that to be successful, students must acquire a set of technology-focused skills to prepare them for college, career, and citizenship.
