Last year, students at Middleton High School designed and implemented an Internet site called Jobquest.cc. The site brings together local businesses seeking employees with students looking for employment. It provides a practical application of the use of technology in today's business world as well as a service to the community. This is just one example of the many uses of technology students and teachers are exploring in the Middleton-Cross Plains Area Schools. All Middleton-Cross Plains Area Schools are connected by fiber optic cable providing Internet access.
Students use computers in their classrooms, in school libraries and computer laboratories.
Many reference materials are now available electronically so students don't have to wait in line for hard copies. These resources are updated frequently and are available to all. It is changing the way research is done. Now, students spend more effort on working with information than on finding it. The District Technology Plan, developed in 1997, provided an infrastructure of hardware and software resources.
