Description:

This Golden LEAF grant will help Transylvania County Schools initiate a one-to-one technology initiative for students in its two middle schools in an effort to improve teaching and learning through the use of technology. Funds will allow the district to take the first step in establishing a one-to-one instructional environment that would provide students access to learning at school and home. The district is moving forward with a comprehensive plan that will place technology in the hands of students in grades k-12 to create 24/7 learning environment. The district will also be supporting instructional technology positions at each school and professional development. In addition, SAS has expressed interest in making a grant to support the purchase of computers for teachers and provide additional professional development on EVASS and Curriculum Pathways software. Golden LEAF Funds will be used to assist with the purchase of technology.
