JFK Teacher Laptops - Low-cost teacher laptops to take advantage of the newly installed wireless. Depending on price we may be able to extend this offer to other schools.

JFK Wireless access – Complete, secure wireless access throughout the school.
Elementary Smartboards – Interactive whiteboard technology for a grade level in each elementary school. Grade TBD.

AV over Fiber – Digital audio/visual system that will allow the distribution of content to designated schools over the proposed town/school fiber network. This will replace the current aging/failing video distribution systems at these schools. This is a foundation step that provides capability. Additional display devices (televisions, projectors, smartboards) will need to be purchased at some locations in the future to take advantage of the functionality this system offers.

This is the request that will be the School Department's as part of the Town capital budgeting process. The likelihood to actually get some capital is slim.
