Digital High School

Two of the most important outcomes of the Digital High School Program are: (1) every classroom will be connected to the internet by the end of the Technology Installation Grant and (2) technology will be integrated into the curriculum to enhance teaching and learning. 

 

Update:  As of 7/1/2002 the Digital High School Grant funding was canceled due to the budget crisis in California.  This did not keep Oroville High School from forging ahead in the area of increasing technology for students and faculty. 

The Digital High School Program provides assistance to schools serving students in grades 9-12 so that these schools may install and support technology, as well as provide staff training. The installation support is provided through the Technology Installation Grant, a one-time $300 per student amount. Following the Technology Installation Grant, schools must submit a final report and a Certification of Completion of the Installation Grant. Schools that submit this certification are eligible to receive a Technology Support and Staff Training Grant in the second fiscal year following the year in which they were selected for the Technology Installation Grant. The Technology Support and Staff Training Grant is an ongoing $45 per student per year. All of the above funding is contingent upon the local education agency providing an equivalent local match and the funds being appropriated each year.
