Because of their efforts the packets were mailed earlier this year and the stuffing process was simplified. Special thanks from parents who have multiple children. That sweatshirt or toy will seem wonderful to you, but remember that the owner is looking for it and missing it. Technology Marches On Through the Summer Summertime , while students are taking a break, Springer volunteers are hard at work upgrading the technology infrastructure to get ready for the next school year. The replacement and addition of portables means that network wiring needs to be installed.
Summer is also the best time to perform software upgrades, virus checks, and routine maintenance.
They spent 2 days wiring the new portables alongside the Library and connecting the new primary Mini-Lab to the main Computer Lab. This entailed pulling wires through existing conduit, drilling holes and installing new conduit, running cables above ceiling tiles, installing hubs and connectors, and testing all connections. Gail S spent many hours upgrading classroom computers with new software, along with Eileen Cuzzi and Jane Croom. Computers were scanned and checked for inconsistencies. Gordon Hamachi also tested the requirements of various versions of software for us.
