School Site Technology Inventory



|School Site Technology Inventory |

An inventory should be completed for each school in the district. An alternative inventory is available online. The results of the California school technology survey are similar to those collected on this inventory. School districts annually are requested to complete the online survey for each of their schools. Districts may find it more efficient to use the online survey for determining some or all of their technology needs.

Write an introduction to the inventory section of your plan including the number of schools inventoried, the names of schools inventoried, and an approximation of when they were inventoried.

Include the number and type of school-owned computers for each location in your school. Please include laptop and desktop computers, as well as thin-client units, in your count. Use numbers, not words such as all or none.
