Technology at Sudan ISD
Technology at Sudan ISD is an integral part of the instructional curriculum. The application of technology to the classroom is a seamless instructional tool which cuts across the demographical disparity of the students and staff of SISD to support the collaborative effort of quality education.
In the Summer of 1997 Sudan ISD installed an ethernet network which connected almost every room in the district to the network and the Internet. From those humble beginnings with a Novell file server, Linux DNS/Web server, a Cisco 2509 Router, a computer in every classroom, and a couple of networked printers; the district's technology has grown tremendously. Currently the district supports an almost 1:1 student to computer ratio. There are numerous networked printers and 16 servers including Win2000 Server, Win2003 Server, Novell, Linux, Macintosh, Citrix, DNS, Web, ADS, Cisco IP Phone, CCTV Servers, and e-mail. The district uses several educational software programs including: Renaissance Learning products, an integrated web based attendance and grade book program (which allows teachers to enter grades from school or home), Pearson, S.R.A. Techknowledge, Study Island, and numerous other software programs. Additionally, the district uses two ITV distance learning labs, wireless labs, 5 computer labs, online library, and video editing stations. In addition, each teacher is provided a web page on the school's web site which allows them to edit their page from school or home. Also, the district is a member of the Sudan Community Resource Network (SCoReNet), which provides training, computer repair, computer resources, web hosting, e-mail, and other services to the members of Sudan ISD (Approx. 600 Sq. miles in Lamb, Bailey, and Cochran counties).
In the high school, computer technology classes are offered in three areas: Business (BCIS I & II), Industrial Technology (AutoCAD), and Computer Applications (Cisco Academy - IT Essentials - A+, Webmastering - Adobe, and Computer Science - JAVA). Some successes of past Sudan technology students include: CCNA certification, competing at the state level in the UIL Computer Science competition, College study in Game Development, and students working for regional technology firms.
The District is also a member of the FACT-Consortium which partners with Five Area Telephone, South Plains College, Lazbuddie ISD, Muleshoe ISD, Olton ISD, Springlake-Earth ISD, Sudan ISD, and ESC-17.
