Seymour Intermediate School officials and students along with friends from U.S. Cellular on March celebrate the unveiling of the school’s new computer lab, which was purchased through shared funds from Seymour Primary School when it won the 2011 U.S. Cellular Calling All Communities grand prize of $150,000. Seymour Primary School shared its winnings with the other schools in the community, and Seymour Intermediate School used its share of $37,500 to refurbish the computer lab with 25 new computers, a projector, computer software and more. U.S. Cellular’s Calling All Communities campaign awards $1 million to schools across the nation in support of education and will return in the fall of 2012.
