  • March 8 Good Morning, I Hope You and Your Family Are Doing Well. It
    March 8 Good morning, I hope you and your family are doing well. It looks like we may have some sunshine later this week to go along with turning our clocks back this coming Saturday evening. This week’s newsletter has some significant updates on the District's move to a hybrid model, our calendar, and our new high school community and connection structure. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions. Thanks and have a great week! This week’s schedule: • Monday & Tuesday - Normal class schedule • Wednesday - Community Connection and high school clubs • Thursday & Friday - Normal class schedule (NEW) No move from VOP to Hybrid - This past Friday, March 5th Governor Kate Brown released new guidance regarding the reopening of Oregon’s schools. In this guidance, she is directing school districts to provide in-person instruction (hybrid) to K-5 grade students by March 29 and 6-12 grade students by April 19. Rest assured, our VOP students stay in the program for the entire 2020-2021 school year. There is no need to worry about your student(s) having to return to their neighborhood school. (NEW) Hybrid model changing District’s calendar, but not VOP’s calendar - North Clackamas was already heading down the path of a hybrid learning option for all students. These changes will result in revised CDL/Hybrid calendars as teacher grade days and preparation days will need to be adjusted to meet this new timeline. Rest assured, our VOP calendar is not changing and will remain the same as before. I have included links to the VOP calendar below: • Elementary calendar • Middle and high school calendar (NEW) High school community and connection meetings - Thank you all for joining the community and connections meeting for the whole high school.

  • Emerging Technologies and Their Expected Impact on Non-Federal Spectrum Demand
    EMERGING TECHNOLOGIE S AND THEIR EXPECTED IMPACT ON NON-FEDERAL SPECTRUM DEMAND May 2019 EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES AND THEIR EXPECTED IMPACT ON NON-FEDERAL SPECTRUM DEMAND Mr. President: Wireless technology has the power to drive our economy, protect national security, and improve the lives of Americans in ways that are still being discovered. As a result of our Nation’s leadership in 4G, we increased GDP by $100 billion in 2016, created more jobs, lowered consumer costs, and ensured that the United States was the home to the entrepreneurial revolution of advanced wireless applications. 5G networks can move massive amounts of data at exponentially faster speeds than existing 4G LTE networks, and will ensure American job growth, improve national security, and ensure American technological leadership in the 21st century. However, as our nation continues to innovate and create devices that are more capable, the demand for spectrum increases as well. To reap the benefits of 5G and the networks of the future, the Nation must have a forward-looking strategic policy to make spectrum use more efficient and make more spectrum available. In your October 25, 2018 Presidential Memorandum, “Developing a Sustainable Spectrum Strategy for America’s Future,” you directed The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to develop a report on emerging technologies and their expected impact on non-Federal spectrum demand. The attached report examines the foundation of 5G technologies and the critical importance of leveraging such technologies to expedite rollout of 5G networks, details the spectrum requirements of 5G and Wi- Fi, and reviews recent and ongoing activities across the government to meet the spectrum demand.

    March 8, 2021 As of yesterday's report, Greenwood County had 11 additional confirmed cases in the county for a total of 6,796 cases confirmed since 21 March 2020. Remember this is only those which have been confirmed and is for those who were tested a minimum of two days ago. This means there are others who have been tested and are in quarantine awaiting results. Additionally, an individual can be asymptomatic, (contagious but shows no symptoms), and may choose not to be tested. The first 6,541 cases in Greenwood County were reported over 15 days ago, so there are 6,541 individuals who should have recovered from the virus. Additionally, Greenwood County has had 143 confirmed deaths due to the virus. This brings Greenwood County's remaining estimated total of active confirmed cases to 112. DHEC does not track recovered individuals by county, so this number is an estimate based on the following: Most individuals recover from the virus within this time frame. From 19 February until 5 March (2 weeks), Greenwood has had 230 confirmed cases out of a population of 70,811. This equates to an incident rate of 324.8 per 100,000 individuals which is rated as high by SCDHEC. (Low = 50 or less; Medium = 51 - 200; High = 201 or more) SCDHEC reported an additional 732 new confirmed cases in the state for a total of 449,997. Also, they reported 32 new confirmed deaths in the state for a total of 7,744. Please click this link to see the deaths by county.

Stuart, FL, Jan 15, 2010 – MDS America, Inc., the premier MVDDS company, which builds systems for the high-speed wireless broadband delivery of video and Internet data by terrestrial transmission (MVDDS), today announced its completion of the latest phase of its build out of the wireless Cable Television system in the United Arab Emirates. “This system, to our knowledge, is the highest capacity wireless system ever built having a capacity of over 700 digital Television channels,” said Kirk Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of MDS America. “This system continues to build on our recent developments in keeping the reliability equal with that of cable.” This terrestrial transmission system is designated Multi-Channel Video and Data Distribution Service (MVDDS) in the United States. With wireless spectrum becoming increasingly scarce, terrestrial use of spectrum is becomes more and more important. MVDDS, which has a 500 mHz bandwidth allocation in the US, has the potential to revolutionize fixed and mobile data delivery. The technology from MDS America has been in use around the world outside of the United States for several years. MDS America equipment has been deployed on three continents. About MDS America MDS America, Inc., is the premier builder of MVDDS systems for high-speed wireless broadband delivery of video and Internet data by terrestrial transmission for customers worldwide.
