 * 1) What is going well
 * 2) Harmon--laptop returns for withdrawing and leaving students is going well. Smaller number of students who are not returning laptops--Ms. Dominguez checks with techs when there is a request for a transcript.
 * 3) Washington--office is checking with Nam to be sure that students have turned in the laptop to Nam for suspensions and withdrawal
 * 4) Wyandotte--not all of the little problems there anymore. Usually only problems seen are hard drive failures. Wireless network is good. KCA no problems.
 * 5) Schlagle--no wireless issues; KCA self-service has helped with problems; Many hard drives are failing. Would like on-site hard drive replacement. Ran out of teacher machines. Joe--will order hard drives Sees students are not as vested in the machines when they are swapped out.
 * 6) Sumner--Things are going well; teachers are wanting to keep the laptops for longer
 * 7) Fairfax Campus--needs kids to treat machines better;
 * 8) Julie--Sumner, Schlagle and Harmon--John Lennon Bus--mobile studio that is currently traveling with the Black-eyed Peas; music teachers chose the students; Apple helped make this happened; Students got to listen to them as Will I Am worked on a new song; huge amount of work for Julie; kids want to come back together and do more recording; a short piece on KMBC's website []
 * 9) Review Plans
 * 1) Supplies
 * 2) Baggies
 * 3) Wooden carts are needed (when finished, they need to be)
 * 4) NCR sheets
 * 5) Let Joe know when the carts are needed
 * 6) Let Alan know if you want the inventory papers inside the machines
