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.

Analysis of Assessment Data
With only 50% of WESTEST results, complete data analysis was not possible. Using the data received,
Reading/Language Arts scores were lower than Math scores in proficiency levels in all grades. A deficiency was noted in 8th grade Reading/Language Arts with 48% of students scoring at Mastery level or above. Fourth grade Writing Assessment scores reflect an 8% increase in students attaining
2.0 or above. Seventh grade scores reflect a 4% increase, and tenth grade scores remain the same as the previous year. These results indicate that the greatest need for writing instruction is at the tenth grade level.
Technology Infrastructure
Elementary and middle schools have two computer labs, both secondary schools have three computer labs, and the Career and Technical Center has three computer labs, two of which are program specific.
Each classroom teacher has at least one computer. The goal is to place three computers in individual classrooms.
OEPA Reports
On October 9, 2003, the West Virginia Board of Education issued a full accreditation status upon the
Wyoming County School District and each school in Wyoming County. During the last on-site review, the Office of Educational Performance Audits made a recommendation that each school create a website. The goal is to establish a website at each school. All schools in Wyoming County met
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP).
