Recently I met with Ramona Hemrick (my school's principal) and Ann Eddens (our librarian) about my using the school website as the basis of my project. Essentially my pitch was "beefing" up the school's site, to provide much more thorough and useful information for the students and faculty alike. Though in recent days it has dawned on me that it would be far more practical to place my focus upon the teachers. You see, the vast majority of my school's student body come from low-income homes, so access to the internet outside of school isn't easy for most. In addition, considering that half of the student body has language barrier issues, I came to the conclusion that one would be better off to direct the improvements toward the teachers.
Anyway, both Mrs. Hemrick and Ms. Eddens were quite enthusiastic about the proposal and the meeting only took a mere few minutes. The two seemed to take the idea and run with it quite well! Now if everything else in this process will go as smoothly as this meeting, we might just have a merry Christmas kids...
