The Technology Program has, over a span of 10 years, become heavily integrated into the Springer curriculum, especially in language arts. Technology is promoted and supported by Springer's Technology Committee made up of parents and Springer staff.
Many members work at leading Silicon Valley firms.
Thanks to donated equipment and volunteer effort, the school now enjoys a network infrastructure that approaches industry standard. Technology Aides, funded by the Los Altos Educational Foundation , staff the Computer Lab and support teachers as much as possible. What remains is an acute shortage of capable classroom computers, for which there are no school district funds. Recent experience with two pilot classrooms using computer clusters has been very positive. Our aides and volunteers often salvage usable parts from otherwise dead Macs.
