Rose Salgado Elementary School, the newest addition to San Jacinto Unified School District in Southern California, opened in August 2025 as a purpose-built K-5 campus honoring Soboba Tribal Member Rose Salgado’s dedication to education. Designed as a modern, technology-forward learning environment, the 77,000-square-foot campus serves 427 students and integrates tools from LG Electronics USA to enhance teaching and learning.
A Fresh Approach to Classroom Technology
With the opportunity to build from the ground up, district leaders reimagined traditional classroom technology models. Instead of replicating legacy systems, they focused on mobility, flexibility and usability. LG CreateBoards, LG gram 2-in-1 laptops and LG UltraWide desktop monitors formed the backbone of an integrated ecosystem designed to support dynamic, teacher-centered instruction.
“We wanted to avoid inefficiencies of older systems,” said Robert Leonard, SJUSD’s director of technology. “LG’s solutions aligned perfectly with our vision for a more flexible and interactive learning environment.”
Collaborative Design and Seamless Integration
Principal Amy Rose emphasized the importance of mobility and instructional flow. “Technology should enable teachers to move freely and interact with students,” she said. LG’s solutions, demonstrated by integrator EHP Solutions, impressed educators with their simplicity and interactivity.
The deployment included 76 LG CreateBoard interactive displays, 60 LG UltraWide monitors and 46 LG gram laptops. Despite a tight summer timeline, the installation was completed ahead of schedule, ensuring classrooms were fully functional by the first day of school.
Transforming Classroom Dynamics
The impact of the technology is already evident. Teachers seamlessly transition between activities, and students actively engage in collaborative problem-solving. “The LG CreateBoards have become shared workspaces, fostering real-time interaction and idea-sharing,” said Rose.
Behind the scenes, the district continues to optimize network architecture and device configurations to support the high density of interactive displays. LG’s responsiveness to feedback has been instrumental in ensuring long-term stability.
A Model for Modern Education
Rose Salgado Elementary demonstrates the power of integrating facilities, pedagogy and technology into a unified ecosystem. “This campus showcases how intentional design can transform teaching and learning,” said Victoria Sanville, LG’s Education Director.
As enrollment grows, the school’s approach serves as a model for other campuses within the district, highlighting the potential of technology to enhance mobility, collaboration and student engagement.
