Local
Needs:
The district met AYP in 2/10 subgroups. The Primary 2-3 School Building met AYP targets while the Junior
High met and is not in "Delay" status. The Intermediate Building improved the percentage of IEP
students scoring proficient or advanced but did not meet attendance rate for that subgroup. The high
school met in all categories except for Graduation Rate. MAP/EOC Index Scores showed continual
improvement and the district scored 14/14 on the APR. District composite ACT scores were among the
highest in the area and were above both the state and national composite scores in all content areas.
1. Goal: Develop and enhance quality educational/instructional programs to improve performance and enable students to
meet their personal, academic, and career goals.
1. Objective: The percentage of students who meet technology literacy standards by the end of eighth grade will
increase, by 3 percentage points per year as measured by local assessment.

Additional Elements:
The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) states that districts must have long-range education technology plans to apply for
program funds and that the plan address specific evaluation requirements. Describe the process and accountability
measures the district will use to evaluate the extent to which activities funded by an NCLB program are effective in
integrating technology into curricula and instruction, increasing the ability of teachers to teach, and enabling students to
reach challenging State academic standards.
Disseminating the technology plan will be ongoing with progress reports being generated yearly to all stakeholders. All
teachers will have access to the technology plan. Building principals will be given a copy of the plan. The Superintendent's
office will have a copy of the technology plan as will each school board member. The plan can also be found on the district's
Web site: www.cj.k12.mo.us. Monitoring the plan is also an ongoing project of the technology committee, administrators,
and staff members. The technology director handles the purchasing of computer hardware and software and is able to
ensure that what is being ordered will meet the requirements of the networking infrastructure and meet our technical
specifications. This also requires reviewing and analyzing the progress towards our CSIP goals. Evaluating the data that is
collected yearly is reviewed to both assess the plan's effectiveness and appropriateness and if warranted, the plan is
modified. Data that is reviewed include yearly MAP and ACT scores, Census of Technology reports, service records, budgets,
purchases, and teacher and student surveys. The technology department reports to the board of education yearly on the
status of technology in the district. These results are summarized and are contained in the minutes of the school board
which can all be found at www.cj.k12.mo.us.
The Universal Service Fund E-rate Program states that district long-range plans must address five essential elements. The
district provides assurances to DESE that the technology plan contains the following:
• Clear goals and realistic strategies for using telecommunications and information technology to improve education
services;
• Professional development strategies to ensure that staff know to use these new technologies to improve education
services;
• Assessment of the telecommunication services, hardware, software, and other services that will be needed to improve
education services;
• Sufficient budget to acquire and support the non-discounted elements of the plan: the hardware, software, professional
development and other services that will be needed to implement the strategy; and
• Evaluation process that enables the school to monitor progress toward the specified goals and make mid-course
corrections in response to new developments and opportunities as they arise.
