Change and New Beginnings

Where did the summer go? It seems to have gone by too quickly, I hope everyone enjoyed the break. Change is scary for me and so are new beginnings. We have incountered both of those here with many staff changes, a new school year and a new grant. The four Technology Rich Classrooms (TRC) are being transformed by all of the technology that they have received from the EETT grant.

With this grant the four TRC classrooms received each of the following per classroom: 12 laptops, a laptop carts, a digital video camera, an interactive wireless white boards, a LCD projector, and a digital camera. The group also received a scanner and an Elmo Document Camera to share between the four rooms as needed.

I am so excited for this school year to begin and to see the TRC classrooms come to life.
