Laptop initiative

Talbot County became the first Maryland school system to implement a county-wide One-to-One laptop initiative in 2005, when it assigned a new laptop computer to each incoming 9th grader. Over the next four years, the system continued providing 9th graders with laptop computers until all of its high school students were using laptops.[12]
