III.Review of the Technology Plan
Rick Good reported that he and Alice Leeds had walked through the building to assess all rooms in the school for computer placement/usage. Rick noted that a closet in the hall could be used as a wiring closet . Another possibility is downstairs next to current wiring panel. An electrician will need to advise the school on best placement.
In terms of a computer lab, the Resource Room is probably the best location. The school will need to consider purchasing a network printer (probably for the mini-lab if and when it is created). A mini-lab would warrant hiring a technical support person. In terms of wiring, two outlets should be placed per room. Rick will create a drawing to show where the computers are currently located. Matt noted that a work table should be in the mini-lab for kids to work while others are using computers.
Bill Jesdale reported that he has tallied the results of the staff survey.
