A second purpose was. to establish goals, objectives, and directions for computer educationon a Distric.t-widebabi-§.. Phases conducted to accomplish these goals consisted of staff trainingstudent training, and the preparatj.on of a District Computer Education Curriculum Guide. All phases were completed satisfactorily. Outcome measures indicate that there is asignificantly higher number of teachers and students involved in'computer education in the District in 1.975 -76 than in 1974-75. SignifiCant, also, is the number of-non-mathematics teachers involved. Finally, a District-wide Curriculum Guide was produced, which will provide the guidance necessary for-the expansion of computereducation in the :othet two high schools in the District, 0 ti PREFACE O A wide array. of scientific,- economic, social, and technical s factors are reshaping our worldand, with it; the:course of modern education One such technological development is the computer, which is being_utilized ciitensiSfelyand is playing,a pervasive role in moderti society. Banking, 0 business, kranspertatiGn, engine,ring,medicine,' and social,and scientific research are only a few ofthe.many areas which are increasinglydependent upon the computer's X speed in problem solving and Itscapacity for handling , vastamounts of data-. In addition, the computer is fast becomifig a significant tool in the administrativeand instructional, processes of education. The. President's Science Advisory Committee statedthat, since the computer is such a vauabl&andversatile tdol, in society, students attending school inthe 1970's who have not been exposed to.knowledge abnutcomputers will be poorly prepared for theworld -of the 1980's and 1990's. Although most school students will nbt be computer technologists, the influence of the computer_an_their --future---1-&s-o_iroportant that they should be made aware of its nature and function. 9 The influence of'the 'computer will be felt by students in many ways. These include career selection, leisure activities, and management of personalfinances. .Moreover, the constitutional rights and.the depersonalization of each individual clan be affected. "The Development, and ImplemeAtation of a District Computer Education Program" attempts to formalize and pilot the necessary steps to bring this needed computer awareness' to the students and staff in ore school district. Although , the direction taken-was heavily influenced by such local factors as availabili':y of hardware andflint,it as r possible that this project could become a model for other 05 school dtstricts to emulate.

Introduction The preparation of the preliminary District budget begins in January, after the release of the Governor’s proposed State operating budget. Over the winter and spring, the General Assembly’s Joint Finance Committee and Joint Capital Improvement Committees hold hearings and modify the Governor’s recommended operating and capital budgets. The budgets are approved by the General Assembly prior to the governor’s approval. The state budget has a significant direct impact on school funding. This year, the state provided ongoing support for recently created programs designed to provide additional support for schools with high concentrations of poverty and or English language learners. In addition, the state also is providing support for basic special education students in grades kindergarten through 3rd grade. These programs, in some circumstances provide the opportunity for School Boards to provide supplemental funding through a match tax. The District and the State are also working on a Wilmington Schools Initiative that is providing supplemental operating and capital funds. This opportunity, as well as the proposed budget, aligns with the beliefs of the Christina School District Board of Education.
