2 County Technology Plan West Virginia has placed an emphasis on equitably providing technology for schools in order to enhance student learning, improve student achievement, and prepare students for post-secondary education and the world of work. Many stakeholders are involved in this process including students, teachers, administrators, parents, community members, legislators, board of education members and others. Collectively, the county technology planning team members have assisted in creating, refining, implementing and utilizing educational technology to meet the current standards, develop local programs, build partners and capacity, make data-driven decisions, and to evaluate the use of technology for administrative and instructional tasks. The county technology plan is a component of the UCIP and is based on the state OPTimal online format ( This plan will serve several functions. Not only does the plan complement and support the county's instructional goals as delineated in the UCIP, it is also intended to help meet the technology objectives/requirements of the school, county/state policies, state/federal programs, and competitive grants. Examples of these include the following: Policy 2320: A Process for Improving Education Performance Based Accreditation System Policy 2450: Virtual Distance Learning Policy 2460: Use of the Internet by Students and Educators Policy 2470: Use of Technology by Students and Educators Policy 2510: Assuring Quality of Education Policy 2520: Content Standards and Objectives Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in order to receive Universal Service Fund Program E-rate Funds The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 which establishes the Enhancing Education Through Technology (Ed Tech) Program West Virginia House Bill 4319 Basic Skills/Computer Education (BS/CE) WV SUCCESS WVDE Reinventing Education However, the most important function of the plan is to ensure that the effective use of educational technology supports achievement and lifelong learning.

6 Needs Assessment Analysis of Assessment Data Roane County Schools WESTEST math and reading scores indicated a need for further remediation for all students below the 50th percentile according to the State of WV testing standards. Technology oriented remediation programs are available in all schools to help address these issues, along with constant upgrades of both computer equipment and software. Analysis of UCIP The WESTEST indicated each school needed to identify their strengths and weaknesses in various curricular areas, via the State of WV WVEIS statewide computer system. To also improve the attendance county wide and dropout rate, and to monitor their academics, attendance, and dicipline. Technology Infrastructure Roane County Schools is constantly striving to improve and increase internet access to allow instructors better integration of technology in all curricular areas, as well as more equipment, networks, and wiring infrastructure to allow more students access to a computer to assist them in their academic understanding and curricular skill development. School Satisfaction Survey Students need more individual instructor attention, and curricular remediation and assistance. This will help with the attendance problem, dropout rate, and student curricular success. OEPA Reports All schools in Roane County have met the OEPA audit standards, and continue striving to improve upon them. Facilities Assessment Roane County Schools are 100% wired for internet in that we have T1 lines in all schools as well as a minimum of one internet PC in each classroom, and one or more internet labs in each school. We have upgrade 5th and 6th grade classrooms by adding 3 additional computers in each classroom in the county, as well as purchased Compass Learning Program licenses for use in each classroom.
