The trend that I see is that developing technology is the trend over all three years and there was not improvement which means that we need to work on getting teachers more geared toward technology adopted in the

This trend seem to go up and down over the past three years. Overall we are doing good in this area. I think that the year of developing came about when he changed administrators and a lot of staff left our
