Second Round of Maine Laptops Initiative
Jordan-Small Middle school will participating in the Maine Laptop Initiative, along with every middle school in Maine. This initiative will lower the JSMS computer ratio to one computer for every two students

The completion of the first 4 years of the Maine Laptop Intitiative has been very successful. The students and staff have learned a great deal about learning in the 21st Century.

All 7th and 8th grade students have access to a laptop computer on a wireless network all day, every day.

Students, under parental supervision, have been allowed to take home the Maine laptops. The impact on classroom instruction has been an amazing transformation.
The opportunity to bring education fully into the 21st century is very exciting.

MLTI - Laptop Parent Information Packet

Dear 7th/8th Grade Parent,

We are pleased that the State of Maine has again renewed the laptop contract for middle school students for the next four years. There have been a few changes in the policies governing use of this technology. Please review the enclosed documents that include the laptop rules and consequences, a copy of the laptop incident consequence sheet, the laptop sign-out procedure, and a copy of the laptop sign-out permission form.

Please indicate that you have received and read these documents by filling out the form below. Forms should be returned to homeroom teachers Tuesday, September 12, 2006. Students will require this signed form before a laptop will be issued to them.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

MLTI Team

One - to -One Computing for Grades 5 and 6
Not to be left out, Jordan-Small 5th and 6th Grade Students are also experiencing education in the 21st Century. Three rolling computer labs have been established for the use of all fifth and sixth graders.

Presently, we have 1: 2 ratio of computers to students. Ultimately, we would like to create 1:1 computing for the entire middle school.
