Features include a school calendar, general district information and pictures, a program of studies, sports schedules, and alumni information. In order to provide computer access for every student in a cost efficient manner we use AlphaSmart word processing keyboards. The laptops are incredibly durable and easy to use. Our school district is committed to teacher computer literacy and usage. We have a comprehensive inservice staff development plan which covers all levels of ability and subject areas.
Most workshops take place after school and in the summer.
Technology must become an integral part of the curriculum, the physical environment, and the delivery of instruction. All guidance counselors use the Internet as well as several software applications that help students choose the right college, search for financial aid and scholarship information, and explore career interests. Our district has a one of the fastest dedicated connections to the Internet available, a full T1 line. In addition, to a 5 credit technology graduation requirement, we inservice all freshman students for two days on word processing and Internet searching fundamentals. There is a societal expectation that students should learn to use technology.
