Technology at Fenton Avenue Charter School Over 900 computers networked throughout the Fenton campus establish a student to computer ratio of two computers for every five students in kindergarten and first grades; a ratio of 1:2 in second grade; and a 1:1 ratio in all third, fourth and fifth grade classrooms. Laptop computers on loan to all Fenton teachers dock at custom-made workstations in every classroom for access to the school’s DS3 line. All teacher work stations connect to a 4,500 lumen ceiling-mounted video projection unit which projects the teacher’s laptop, document camera, DVD or VCR player on to a six by eight foot retractable screen, accessible through a switch at the teacher station. A voice amplification system in every classroom which includes a wireless headset for the teacher and handheld microphone for student use. Video conferencing accessible in every classroom. All third, fourth and fifth grade classrooms have a one-computer-per-student configuration. Computers are recessed under custom-designed glass-top desks and connected to the school’s network providing access to standards-aligned software as well as a DS3 line for Internet access. All classrooms and offices have telephones with voice mail, and each room and office is connected to a school-wide intercom system. HOW DO WE MAINTAIN ALL OF THIS TECHNOLOGY?
