C1 Celebrates Five Years of Innovative Partnership with Schools
Celebrating a Committed Partnership in Esports Education
Empowering Future Generations Through Innovation and Technology
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — C1, a global leader in technology solutions focused on enhancing the human experience through connectivity, is thrilled to mark five years of dedicated support to the Moreno Valley Unified School District (MVUSD) esports program. This fruitful collaboration highlights C1's commitment to fostering innovation and collaboration in the ever-evolving education and esports landscape.
Launched with the vision of enhancing student involvement, the MVUSD Esports program has rapidly become a nationally acknowledged initiative, engaging students across 36 schools. Thanks to MVUSD's insightful leadership, along with C1’s technological expertise, the program has made remarkable strides by providing equitable access to cutting-edge Alienware gaming desktops that facilitate both competitive and educational esports opportunities throughout the district.
According to Joshua Combs, IT Analyst III at MVUSD, "C1's remarkable ability to align with MVUSD's educational principles promotes inclusivity, collaboration, and excellence. Their support—ranging from the equitable distribution of equipment to sponsoring initiatives like the All Girls League—has been vital in enhancing our esports program and offering career-building experiences for students.”
Beyond simple infrastructure support, C1 plays an instrumental role in advancing MVUSD's overarching goal of leveraging esports for increased student engagement and academic success. The program boasts impressive outcomes, including a 33.5% reduction in absenteeism among participants, a 44% decrease in suspension rates, and a notable GPA increase from 2.43 to 2.70, surpassing the district’s average. Furthermore, the esports initiative has successfully re-engaged students post-pandemic, with over 60.2% of participants joining extracurricular activities for the first time.
Peter Whitmore, Esports Coordinator and Scholastic Esports Mentor for MVUSD, shares that, "The esports program represents more than just gaming; it cultivates essential skills such as teamwork, strategic thinking, and leadership, preparing students for promising futures in our increasingly digital world."
C1’s role extends to being the primary hardware distributor for the MVUSD Esports program. They work closely with district leaders to create tailored solutions that address logistical hurdles encountered during the deployment phase while providing continuous support. Moreover, C1 has collaborated with MVUSD to enhance its technological infrastructure and security over the past decade. Key highlights include the successful installation of a cyber-recovery solution and upgrading the MVUSD's wired and wireless capacities, which now include robust Wi-Fi 6 capabilities to ensure enhanced performance and security delivered through Aruba solutions. Impressively, all installations were executed without any downtime, allowing seamless connectivity for the entire school community.
Zeina Ammar, Senior Vice President of Public Education at C1, explained, "We are firm believers in the transformative power of technology—not just for businesses but for lives as well. MVUSD’s forward-thinking initiatives that bridge equity gaps, promote inclusivity, and encourage student growth via esports inspire us. It is an honor to collaborate with such an innovative organization in reaching their objectives."
As C1 continues to support the MVUSD esports program, they remain dedicated to ensuring that students are well-equipped for future challenges in an increasingly digital environment.
