Much progress is being made in the Carmody Middle School PC Computer lab.  Every Pentium II computer has been has its RAM doubled.  Most workstations are running with 128 MB RAM.  Last spring, an HP IIIsi networking laser printer was donated.  Now we can print faster and at a much cheaper cost per page than previously when we had ink jet printers.  The value of this printer when new was at $7,000.

One of our 8th students, Travis E____ has been assisting Dr. Data in upgrading the RAM in the PC Lab.  He stays daily after school daily and provides both hardware and technical assistance.  His efforts are very much appreciated.

Ms. Kathy Hughes, Carmody math teacher, is now using the PC Lab after school teaching an Intel/Microsoft in-service class for 20 Jeffco in-service instruction.

ComputerClub!

Carmody's official computer club, the "Whiz Chips,," is doing great!  We have nearly 30 members learning to construct computer games with Klick & Play software.   The eight grade members are teaching the new members.  Second semester, the "Whiz Chips" Club will sponsor a computer games contest.  The manufacturer is allowing all "Whiz Chips" club members to download their software for free!
