Delaware's Capital School District has implemented multicampus digital signage systems across the district, according to an announcement from digital signage provider Mvix.

The K-12 school district serves seven elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school with a staff of just more than 1,000. Digital signage is playing an important role in the mission of K–12 institutions in the school district — to educate, inform, notify and alert — according to the announcement.

The turnkey project was implemented leveraging Mvix's digital signage solution, bundled with its free Web-based software. The solution provides a centralized, cloud-based network that can be managed from any location while eliminating the need for onsite storage servers, designed to help school administrators

"The students' attention will be drawn to signage that looks like the technology they interact with on a day-to-day basis," said Kyle Baxter, the Capital School District's systems administrator, in the announcement. "We have numerous signs around the school, dynamically displaying critical information. The digital signs display announcements, school news such as athletic achievements, events such as awards ceremonies and directories. It is no surprise that the students have come to rely on the signs as the one place they can go to know everything that's going on in the school. They are more likely to read information off a digital sign than a non-stimulating paper poster. The students are interested in what's vibrant and dynamic."
