County Technology Plan
West Virginia has placed an emphasis on equitably providing technology for schools in order to
enhance student learning, improve student achievement, and prepare students for post-secondary
education and the world of work. Many stakeholders are involved in this process including students,
teachers, administrators, parents, community members, legislators, board of education members and
others.
Collectively, the county technology planning team members have assisted in creating, refining,
implementing and utilizing educational technology to meet the current standards, develop local
programs, build partners and capacity, make data-driven decisions, and to evaluate the use of
technology for administrative and instructional tasks.
The county technology plan is a component of the UCIP and is based on the state OPTimal online
format (http://wv.ontargetus.com/). This plan will serve several functions. Not only does the plan
complement and support the county's instructional goals as delineated in the UCIP, it is also intended to
help meet the technology objectives/requirements of the school, county/state policies, state/federal
programs, and competitive grants. Examples of these include the following:
Policy 2320: A Process for Improving Education Performance Based Accreditation System
Policy 2450: Virtual Distance Learning
Policy 2460: Use of the Internet by Students and Educators
Policy 2470: Use of Technology by Students and Educators
Policy 2510: Assuring Quality of Education
Policy 2520: Content Standards and Objectives
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in order to receive Universal Service Fund Program
E-rate Funds
The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 which establishes the Enhancing Education Through
Technology (Ed Tech) Program
West Virginia House Bill 4319
Basic Skills/Computer Education (BS/CE)
WV SUCCESS
WVDE Reinventing Education
However, the most important function of the plan is to ensure that the effective use of educational
technology supports achievement and lifelong learning.

Needs Assessment
Analysis of Assessment Data
1. There is a need for strengthening K-5 instructional programs in the areas of Mathematics and
Reading, with a special focus on students from low SES homes and with disabilities. (Source –Westest
and Unified School Improvement Plans)
The following is a summary of the student subgroups at each level and the percentage of students
meeting proficiency.
Elementary - All - In Math – 68.5% of students met mastery; In Reading – 74.9% of students met
mastery.
Elementary - Low SES - In Math – 63.8% of students met mastery; In Reading – 70.7% of students met
mastery.
Elementary - Sp. Ed. - In Math – 35.0% of students met mastery; In Reading – 30.0% of students met
mastery.
2. There is a need for strengthening middle level instructional programs in the areas of Mathematics
and Reading, with a special focus on students from low SES homes and with disabilities (Source –

Technology will be used to address these needs through software that enhances student learning in
reading and mathematics. We are adding additional software for our special education population to
address the achievement gap indicated by the data.
Analysis of UCIP
4. There is a need to provide extra time and extra help across the curriculum in the form of reduced
class size in key grades and subjects, and through “after-school” and extended day programs for
students at all grade levels who are scoring below proficiency levels in Reading and Mathematics as
measured by the Westest. (Source – Westest) and other appropriate assessment measures.
5. There is a need to provide transportation services for students to be able to participate in after-school
and extended day programs in order to maximize participation. (Source – local percentage of students
that depend on bus transportation as a sole means of getting to and from school is 90%.

the school district and the schools. (Source – County Plan Technology )
15. There is a need to provide students with expanded opportunities for writing and reading across the
curriculum. There is also a need to expand existing library resources for all children in the school
district. (Source – Writing Assessment, Unified School Improvement Plans)
16. There is a need to provide support services to the families and students whose absences from
school are detrimental to academic progress. (Source – Attendance Data)
17. There is a need to implement programs that lead to an increased college going rate. (Source –
Educational Research, College Going Rates.)
18. There is a need to expand the high school/middle school curriculum through virtual school sources,
and to expand educational opportunities at all grade levels through the use of virtual/distance learning
technology. (Source – LSIC Recommendations, Board of Education Minutes)
19. There is a need to provide a climate conducive to learning through improvements in school facilities
and grounds. (Source – Local School Improvement Councils)
20. There is a need to continue implementation of the Saxon Phonics comprehensive reading program
that effectively delivers skills and concepts to meet West Virginia Content Standards and Objectives
and to supplement the adopted reading program with a strong, systematic phonics program. (Source –
SAT 9)
Page 7 of 64
21. There is a need to expand foreign language services to students at all grade levels K-12 in order to
improve overall language skills for students (Source – Educational Research, Best Practices, Surveys,
WV Kids Count)
22. There is a need to train and assist teachers in implementing student assessment procedures at all
grade levels in order to meet new state and federal requirements.
23. There is a need to train and assist teachers in understanding and implementing policies and
procedures relating to the “No Child Left Behind” Federal Legislation. This includes training in effective
schools correlates, effective instructional strategies, learner engagement levels, Bloom’s Taxonomy,
and pillars of school improvement.
In the needs described above, up-to-date technology is required in order to provide teacher and
students with the best tools possible for learning. Only through the wise use and integration of
technology can all subgroups of learners achieve the required proficiency levels set forth by NCLB.
Technology Infrastructure
Assessment results show that 77% of Clay County Schools classrooms have 3 or more W98 (or higher)
computers, compared to 35% Statewide. 100% of classrooms are wired compared to 91% statewide.
Based on individual school results, Clay Elementary School has the greatest need in terms of updating
computer equipment. Wiring infrastructure throughout the county is excellent.
School Satisfaction Survey
Satisfactions surveys show that parents are generally pleased with the availability of technology in
schools. Our surveys show that parents are most concerned about fairness in discipline and school
safety. We are adding surveilance technology in our schools to help address these concerns.
OEPA Reports
6 of our 7 schools are meeting AYP. Clay County Middle School is not meeting AYP due to the special
education subgroup. OEPA completed a vist at this school a few days ago and the report is pending.
Based on the exit interview, the school is complying with all regulations, policies and procedures.
Supplemental services are being provided to students to assist the school in making AYP. Computer
technology is being used as part of the supplemental services and after-school tutoring.
Facilities Assessment
We have 7 schools. Our 3 larger schools, Clay High, Clay Middle and Clay Elem. are in excellent
condition. Our 4 remaining schools are very small, housing about 100-130 students each. These
schools are clean and well-maintained, yet they are very old and replaced. We are constructing a new
school over the next two years to replace Valley Fork and Ivydale schools. Our CEFP calls for a similar
plan to replace Lizemore and H.E. White schools in the future. The technology infrastructure at all
schools is very good.
Digital Divide Survey
Generally the digital divide survey results show Clay County to be above the state average in
computer-to-student ratios, wired classrooms, up-to-date computers, and administrative usage of
technology. We hope to continue with a progressive agenda in the integration and usage of technology.
This will help to level the playing field in a county that has the 2nd highest poverty rate among the 55
counties in West Virginia.
