 * 1st Semester Report

We have held two workshops for teachers (new and those who wanted a refresher) on creating a webpage and uploading grades. All teachers have a working webpage and are posting grades with varying regularity.

We are waiting to hear back from adminstration about starting our SmartBoard Collaborative Group. We need to get started, and this fits right into the Project Excell professional development area. With all the meetings about Project Excell, we have little inservice time available, so we are looking into other options for meeting with this group.**
 * We continue to support teachers as they implement technology in their classrooms. We work one-on-one with teachers on a regular basis.

2nd Semester Report from Liesl

We have been trying to hold a SMART Board Collaborative group for teachers wh o have received SMART Boards and those who are interested in learnign more about the technology, but the meetings have been poorly attended. We had hoped that since we are a Project Excell! school, there would be teachers looking for professional development opportunities, but I think teachers are just overloaded with all that needs to be done. Hopefully next year we will be able to start the group earlier and hopefully have more teachers use the group as part of their Project Excell! plan. We might also think about trying some different topiocs for professional development. Teachers had expressed an interest in learning more about SMART Boards, but our attendance tells me otherwise. This is definitely something to look into for next year.**
