I will be collecting everyone’s laptop on Friday for storage.  If there is something you would like access to over the break, I suggest you burn it to a CD.  Your computers WILL NOT be erased. If you are leaving before Friday, you need to turn in your laptop to either a) me, b) Mrs. Lewin, or c) your home room teacher. Have a great break... -Matt =================================== Matt Harris

This afternoon I gave the students their laptops.  Needless to say, there was a bit of excitement in the air. And for the first time since we began this laptop program every single family sent a parent to the tech orientation on the first night.  So there is no need to hold an alternate orientation. So, I want to thank all you for a) coming to the technology orientation last night and b) being

As all of you know, we have been without computers since the beginning of the school year due to a battery recall from Apple. After a full examination, our school had 33 batteries that were up for recall.  After completing the list of batteries, I sent in an official request to Apple to have the batteries replaced.  They told me it would be a few weeks, as many as 4-6. Since my initial request,

Our talented 5th graders have been working for months learning about web page design. They learned the elements of web design, parts of a web page, and the nuances of Macromedia (Adobe) Dreamweaver. They worked in partners to create original works covering the following subjects: Cars, Inventions, Sly Cooper, and Hollywood. Go check out their work at http://wornickjds.org/tech/studentwork.html
