These include Artist in Residence, Reflections, Outdoor School, field trips, new library books, assemblies, teacher support and appreciation, and other enrichment programs. This year, our PTA has decided to take on a very important task that will make a difference for our children forever. This kind of support, while expected in private schools is becoming necessary in our public schools as fewer resources are allocated for their needs. We currently have 14 computers, of which only 12 work consistantly. Eleven have working CD roms.
None have enough RAM to bring up any intricate websites consistantly.
The only program available on all computers is Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing, making it very difficult to teach any entire class anything recent, interesting, or different. The PTA voted to provide the first 2 computers and hope to have them available to our students by November 15, 2000. A receipt will be sent to you as soon as your donation is received. If you have any questions regarding this appeal please feel free to contact either of us.
