State:
Strive to achieve and maintain a personal computing device ratio of 1:1 for both students and professional educators.

Comments:
> Move equipment down from the high school to elementary. > Give equipment to low socio-economic students.
 * 1) Find secure way to incorporate student-owned tech devices for school use. Students have comfort level with their own equipment.
 * 2) “Bring your device to school” day. Allowing us to benchmark our readiness for a 1:1 scenario. Activities would be geared towards using mobile devices.
 * 3) Utilize web based apps (device agnostic)
 * 1:1 Elementary want devices to keep as a set, not assign for kids to use all day and take home. More control, may be better at first. K-2, no way.
 * 1) Find a purchasing agent that kids, parents, and teachers can purchase equipment getting the education discount.
 * 2) To solve the 1:1 problem K-12, here are several suggestions:
 * 1) Form a committee to look at software and learning management system.
 * 2) Pilot projects.
