Springdale Public Schools in Springdale, Ark., recently announced a new partnership that will bring seven new digital displays to the district. Digital Scoreboards will provide six outdoor displays and one indoor display to upgrade both athletic experiences and educational opportunities for students, according to a news release.

The project also serves as a district-wide advertising platform for local businesses. The “state-of-the-art technology and dynamic displays” will enhance the game-day experience, serve educational purposes, and connect local businesses with the community while supporting district athletics.

“We are thrilled with the new partnership with Springdale Public Schools,” said Chris Kirn, President at Digital Scoreboards. “I would like to thank Dr. Cleveland, Keith Fimple, and Donald Tucker for the trust placed in the Digital Scoreboards team. This unique district-wide digital project will undoubtedly impact the athletic department, student body, and Springdale community at large through game day excitement, classroom learning initiatives, and the district-wide advertising opportunity. We look forward to completing this project and turning over another successful Digital Scoreboards project.”
