    iBook users interested in upgrading from OS 9 to OS X should register for an upgrade class. The class will begin with instructions on upgrading your iBook. While your computer is going through the upgrade process, you'll be given hands on demonstrations of working in OS X. The first class is scheduled for 3:45 - 5:45 on Tuesday, March 4th in the high school library. Enrollment is limited to 16 participants.
