How's it going?

Office has exhausted their resources in getting student laptops to the students. Has 115 new computers that will be used for checkout and testing Get a report from Silk that will tell them who doesn't have a laptop
 * Harmon**--it's going ok except for a problem with the network a couple of weeks ago.


 * Wyandotte**--students are getting their laptops; cut off those who are going to get laptops to check out; need more time and another person;159 who do not have laptops


 * Washington**--has a problem with last minute requests for setting up PCs at last minute with treasurer requests for PCs and a printer. Washington had a problem that affected the entire system. Something is eating up band width, but TIS has installed a device to find the problem and fix it.


 * Fairfax--**"Things at Fairfax is rosey!" No real problems with testing. When there was a freeze up, restarted the computers and everything was fine...no data lost.


 * Sumner**--Roll out went well. All laptops accounted for. Two check outs are happening now. Working on full check out.


 * Schlagle**--Checkpoint assessments went well. 80 kids will need daily check outs. People are actually using them for work and they are actually being used in the classroom. One cart per floor administrators will take care of that. Problems with access on the 3rd floor--TIS is working on it. Paras that would love to have one. Paras did parent enrollments in School Loop.

Regular check outs for next year--any returning student can go into the school and pay for the laptop in the summer as well as drop in and pay at any time. New kids get lost in the shuffle.
