VISION

Develop a vision statement consistent with the North Carolina Instructional Technology Plan that reflects the unique qualities and strategic priorities of your local school system.

"Moving mountains", Clay County Schools' statement of vision for instructional technology, reflects not only the potential benefits, but also the challenges associated with infusing technology into our school system and community. To consider the extent to which our students are disconnected from the mainstream of our state, one needs to ponder the fact that from Clay County, we can drive to the capitals of five other states quicker than we can drive to Raleigh. Remote southern Appalachian isolation from mainstream education facilities, business and industry has been a traditional handicap for students in our small, rural, mountain counties.

Technology is a tool which can bridge the gap of geographic isolation, affording our students, staff, and community access to otherwise unavailable resources. These tools are vital in order for Clay County Schools to participate on a level playing field in the efforts to implement the statewide technology plan.  Our goal in implementing any educational technology practice is that it enhances teaching and learning while remaining as seamless and transparent to the end user as possible. Active participation in regional connectivity initiatives help us to minimize the recurring costs associated with connectivity for this technology while maximizing benefits through collaboration.

North Carolina has developed a state educational technology plan to enhance the teaching and learning processes within all its schools. As such, it has been designed to merge and reflect Governor James B. Hunt's goal of having North Carolina's schools First in America by 2010. This will be done by supporting and enhancing the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's mission of high student achievement; safe and orderly schools; quality professionals; effective, efficient operations; and community and family support. It is the intent of Clay County Schools to fully endorse and actively pursue these goals.

High Student Performance: Current Situation Narrative

Support of teaching and learning toward student achievement is the primary focus of technology in Clay County Schools. While the administrative strengths of technology applications are vital as well, they are a distant second in the priority of delivering high quality instruction in the classroom. From online classroom activities and instructional software to distance learning to parent interaction, technology is used to empower our teachers and students.

Baseline applications in Clay County Schools classrooms include Moodle, NCWiseOWL, SAS, Accelerated Reader, Orchard, Harcourt Math Software, United Streaming Video, and Skillsbank. In and out of the classroom, teachers and students have access to flexibly scheduled labs, media center digital resources, after-hours access to on-and off-campus labs, and remote access to files.

Student achievement is assessed using statewide tools such as online testing and SIMS, with plans to implement NCWISE. InteGrade is used by teachers in maintaining student grades, and Moodle teacher sites provide interaction between parents and teachers regarding student progress, as well as allowing parents to monitor homework assignments, etc.

The IMPACT model is fully embraced at Clay County Schools, with particular emphasis to flexible scheduling of labs and media centers. Media center personnel and technology personnel are closely partnered for maximum collaboration of resources.

Every classroom at Clay County Schools has a minimum of two network capable workstations with Internet access, with the exception of a very few mini-classrooms. Our student to computer ratio approaches two to one, with a large number of classrooms having 4 to 12 station mini-labs.

Every classroom and office space at Clay County Schools has Internet Access, with a minimum of 4 drops per classroom.

The development of distance learning is a high priority for Clay County Schools.

We currently offer Latin 1 and 2 via CBT style delivery, and have purchased Interactive Classroom hardware to enable on-campus delivery of interactive distance learning. In addition to our participation in the WNC EdNet project, we are forming relationships with several colleges and universities to offer distance learning applications both to our students and our faculty as staff development opportunities.

In addition to on-campus availabilty of digital resourcesa via the Clay County Schools network, we have a community Telecenter located at Moss Memorial Library in Hayesville where students, teachers and parents can access school resources. We have also partnered with local ISP’s to provide remote access to network resources.

Healthy Students in Safe, Orderly and Caring Schools: Current Situation Narrative

Clay County Schools’ Safe Schools plan utilizes technology from both an administrative standpoint as well as implementation. Technologies adopted include IP telephony in schools, a video surveillance system currently under construction, and ConnectED for parent notification.

Our Child Nutrition Department makes use of EMS software for point of sale and financial management, as well as publishing menus to our schools’ websites and for communication of information to parents and students.

We are currently installing video surveillance camera on campus and in the surrounding areas, such as our outdoor classroom and community playground. This system is IP accessible, and is also available to the Clay County Sherrif’s Dept via our fiber network.

Dare and CIS are but two community based agencies that utilize the technology resources of Clay County Schools. File and email services are available to them, and CIS is a key partner in many of our community based technology grants.

Student discipline data is kept at each school office in both printed and digital form. No formal application is used to track this data beyond that information placed in SIMS.

Quality Teachers, Administrators and Staff: Current Situation Narrative

Clay County Schools faculty have received training on use of technology resources in the classroom and for professional development. These resources include Kaleidoscope, NCWise Owl, and Intel applications, as well as Moodle, web development, and LearnNC.

By necessity of budget, many of our training resources are in-house and /or in-kind. All technology personnel and media center personnel, as well as selected faculty members from each school, help to provide technology related staff development. Additionally, Clay County Schools makes use of contracted services for staff development, as well as on-line resources.

In addition to that staff development required for licensure, Clay County Schools provides and requires training for technology applications that are put in place. Examples include Moodle, web development, network resources familiarity, SAS, NCWiseOWL, Kaleidoscope, WebQuest, Digital Literacy, and

In addition to usual resources such as SIMS/NC WISE, CECAS, SEA, eProcurement, employee timesheets, Intranet, and email,Clay County Schools employees use online technology request applications, databases for staff development CEU information, purchase order database, and are planning to implement HRMS.

As demonstated by our TCO model, Clay County Schools strives to keep a significant percentage of our technology resources oriented toward Staff Development. Our percentage generally runs between 20% to 28%.

Effective and Efficient Operation: Current Situation Narrative

Technology personnel at Clay County Schools includes a Technology Director and 1 Technician. We also contract services on a flexibly scheduled basis with two other technicians. Technology facilitators and assistants are provided in the school on an as available, in-kind basis. We hope to be able to more effectively staff technology support in the schools.

In addition to usual funding sources such as PRC15, EETT, PRC 14, and local funds, Clay County Schools technology initiatives are frequently funded through locally sought and obtained grant funds.

Network security is achieved through the use of appliance and software firewall solutions, antivirus software, and Novell Netware file and print services. Goals include packet shaping solutions, as well as anti spam and anti spyware solutions.

Policies relative to technology are a work in progress at Clay County Schools. We have an Acceptable Use Policy which is distributed to all students and signed by parents. Many other technology policies currently fall under the general policies of Clay County Schools, and are being reviewed for relevance and separate policies being considered.

Our current bandwidth capabilities for LAN use are adequate, with gigabit connectivity between all schools and facilities on campus. Our limitations exist at the level of connectivity to the Internet, currently at 1.54Mbps.

With a student to computer ratio of nearly 2 to 1, we have sufficient hardware for instruction. The challenge lies in flexible scheduling of access to this hardware for maximum effectiveness.
