The school's top choir, the Tapestry, put on a wonderful holiday performance to get things rolling. That was followed by students presenting their technology projects, which included a professional-quality video. It was a compilation of the school's favorite holiday moments, shot and edited by students.
Technology is a big part of the curriculum at the school, and it shows.
I was very impressed with not only the program, but also the persistence to get grants and donations. The students also presented a nursing home email project that they started, called The Techmasters program. The program was started through a grant and donations and allowed the school to purchase laptop computers. The local phone company donated services so students and seniors can use email, and the students take it from there. Some of them went to the nursing home and helped seniors email their family members.
