At left, Manistique’s Lakeside School third-grader Bryan Tiglas and Marilyn Schlief, senior program officer for the National Foundation for the Improvement of Education, based in Washington, D.C., work at a computer at Lakeside School in this photo published today in 1996. The school was one of 22 nationwide chosen to participate in Bill Gate’s Road Ahead project. Schlief was part of a team that visited the 22 sites. A bridge between the school and cyberspace was created not long before the school was selected to participate in the two-year, $30,000 program. “This community is the most rural site in the nation that is taking part in the Road Ahead Program,” said Schlief while visiting Lakeside School.
