Class Description:
I teach in a suburban area of the Minneapolis area in Minnesota. A small community of roughly 5300, with an average graduating class around 105. My classes are taught in the computer lab, working now with software that is over 8 years old.
Position:
Business / Technology Teacher
Needs:
We would really like to update our current software. We are using software that is over 8 years old, that includes Microsoft Office and Macromedia suite. Also, we would really like a partial mobile lab or about 12 - 15 laptops that would allow classes to be outside of the classroom lab or the classroom.

I believe so strongly in t his district and the staff here, that I have chosen to open enroll my children here at Jordan School District.
