2006-2007 in review

This school year we had major technology introduced to Mintie White. In the coming years we hope to build on this and make more technology accessible to the Mintie White Learning community. Highlights from this year:
• a new computer lab in the library with 24 new iMacs
• a new site technician, Jose Anaya. Thanks for everything Jose we are sorry to see you go.
• Accelerated Reader (AR) in 1st – 5th grades. AR is a web based reading comprehension program designed to help student improve their reading comprehension.
• Edusoft. Edusoft helps schools administer district benchmarks and classroom tests quickly and easily; delivers rapid results; improves the reliability of assessment programs; and connects assessment to instructional decisions.
• Some of the teacher trainings can be seen on the bottom of the Mintie White’s teachers page
