Dr. Jack McManus Ed. Dr. Terri Cannings Ed. The community is rural and is isolated in access to broader cultural experiences. The economic base is agricultural but more recently has been influenced by the California State Prison. I believe that a student in Corcoran should have the same opportunity as any other child in California.
Technology can remove many of the physical barriers that isolate our children.
During the past nineteen years, I have explored ways to improve student academic success. It is time for technology to become just another tool used in the everyday job of educating our children. Without the tools of the future, our children will live without the opportunities of the future. I am pursuing a course of study in education technology so that I can better serve the students of Corcoran. The educational system can meet the challenge of quality education for all children regardless of their ethnic, economic, or family background.
