 Technologies, a leading provider of sports technology solutions to professional and collegiate teams and conferences, has extended its streaming media technology services to assist Fort Campbell's military soldiers stationed in Iraq, enabling them to watch their loved ones' high school graduations on Friday, May 19 and Saturday, May 20.

Fort Campbell's 101st Airborne Division has 110 seniors graduating from six high schools within the Clarksville/Montgomery County School System, in addition to the 109 seniors at Fort Campbell High School, where nearly half have deployed parents.

"Soldiers with graduating students wouldn't otherwise get a chance to see their children in their caps and gowns or hear their names called as they proudly receive their diplomas," said Kelly Ann Tyler, Fort Campbell Public Information Officer. "Being able to watch this video streaming from Iraq means more to these families than anyone could realize."

To ensure success, XOS dedicated days of planning, design work, testing and integration to provide the necessary technology to stream video and audio of all seven high school graduations, which will take place at Austin Peay State University's Dunn Center located in Clarksville, Tenn.
The graduation schedule (in CDT) is as follows:

Friday, May 19      Montgomery Central High                  4 PM
                    Fort Campbell High                       7 PM

Saturday, May 20    Kenwood High                             8 AM
                    Rossview High                           11 AM
                    Clarksville High                         2 PM
                    Northwest High                           5 PM
                    Northeast High                           8 PM


"On behalf of the graduating students at FCHS FCHS Fort Collins High School (Colorado)
FCHS Frederick County Humane Society
FCHS Fayette County High School (Fayetteville, GA)
FCHS Floyd County High School (Floyd, VA) 
 and their parents, I wish to extend our thankfulness for this generous gift," said Doris Gallivan, Fort Campbell High School principal. "Graduation is a milestone in the lives of both students and parents. XOS Technologies is to be commended for its support of our military troops."

XOS Network's Vice President of Marketing Craig Rosenshein added, "We're honored to be able to, in our own way, show our gratitude to the men and women who have left families behind while they defend our nation. This shows the power that new technology has to bring people together, no matter how much distance separates them."
