Staff Development Needs
We need to write in our budget the ability to include consumables such as DVDs, CDs, printer cartridges, etc.
Computer labs should be upgraded, as many are still largely Windows 2000 operating systems and larger printers such as LaserJet
4700s are needed. Other possible upgrades would be additional Object Camera Projectors, newer dvd components for the classroom,
additional Canon Sureshot cameras, Mini-DVI to VGA adapters and Video adapters for the Apple MacBooks.
Future Vision and Direction
To have local servers, for log-ins, controls and administrative functions using Windows 2003 or Mac OSX server software. All
teachers should have the ability to use a projector, computer, DVD Player and sound system to deliver instruction when appropriate
for their lessons and students.
