Reaching for the STaR Chart

E-Rate is administered by the USAC under the direction of the FCC. The program is designed to provide all schools with equal opportunity to have Internet access and telecommunications on their campus. Each year, the district applies for funding which is based on poverty rate and urban or rural status. The funding ranges from 20% - 90%.
The district is responsible for providing end-user equipment such as computers and phones. The must provide software and professional staff development along with any additional elements to utilize connectivity.
CCISD has adopted its Clear Vision to address the needs as stated in NCLB. The goals include a comprehensive program that focuses on dependable 24/7 networking allowing students, teachers, and parents to access information, anytime/anywhere.
According the 2009-2010 STaR Chart data, Brookside Intermediate School has received a rating of Advanced or Target Tech in the four areas addressed in the survey. The data indicated three areas of improvement for Brookside. These areas include: patterns of classroom use, TA TEKS implementation, and online learning. In addition, the data showed a rating of 2 on EP6 related to the capabilities of educators with online learning. These will be our areas of focus for staff development in 20010-2011.
