Subject: TECH PLAN INFO
Just as a follow-up to the original message -
Because we are waiting for the federal Department of Education to publish a
NEW Educational Techology Plan under Sec. Rod Paige's direction, all Vermont
schools that have successfully completed the "Technology Plan Update
Process" will have a minimum of a six-month extension on their tech plan
approval.
If a school has completed only its original plan, and that plan has expired,
and the school has NEVER completed the "Tech Plan Update", that school will
need to complete the Update process in order to maintain their
certification.
We are in the midst of adding the six month extension to those plans that
have undergone the Update process. To check your school's status, go to the
VISMT website at:
http://www.vismt.org/programs/infotech/planning/cplans/certifie.htm
If you have questions please contact either Bill Romond ([log in to unmask]

Subject: E-RATE YEAR END REMINDER
July 1, 2001, is an important date for E-rate applicants. Schools and
libraries that have participated in the E-Rate program since year one

Applicants without approved plans will be ineligible to receive year
