istation- Texas Success Initiative Istation was funded by a grant for grades 3-8. The district will pay for K-2. The unlimited access means that there will be home use. These activities are different from the istation cycle work. These are enrichment activities – NOT the full program. Students will NEVER test at home. Online home access begins on October 1, 2012. ** We still do not know how students will login from their home computers. ***As I know more, you will too!
