St. Catherine’s is a small K–7 Catholic school in British Columbia. The school offers networked computing in some of its classrooms, but the primary site for computer-based learning is the school’s library media center, where the computer lab is housed.
‘No Guarantee’ Students Could Use Computers
When Ray Kase joined Downingtown Area School District (DASD) as director of technology, his most immediate challenge was clear: Slow and unreliable computers meant less computer time for the 12,000 K-12 students in the district just west of Philadelphia. Classrooms, labs and libraries throughout the city were filled with computers in desperate need of replacement.
Unreliable, outdated technology
A star among private schools in British Columbia, Star of the Sea Catholic School nurtures the spiritual, intellectual, physical, emotional and social development of K-7 students. Key to achieving those goals, the school relies on technology to help teach and prepare students for the future.

In recent years, the state of North Carolina announced ambitious goals to achieve one-to-one computer access for all its K-12 students and putting all assessment testing online. It’s a directive that’s tough for nearly any school’s budget, but even more so for Scotland County Schools.
Mostly rural, Scotland County, North Carolina, is one of the smallest counties in the state and the 16th poorest district in the nation. The 14 public schools within the county serve 6100 students. Only one third of their students have Internet access at home and many don’t have computers.
