Technology at Brushy Creek
Mission Statement
Students and staff at Brushy Creek Elementary will be using
TECHNOLOGY to transform educational practices in a manner that supports
purposeful problem-solving, performance-based assessment practices, and
experiential learning. This will be done in such a way that alignment to the
curriculum is maintained, learning is made increasingly relevant, students are
authentically engaged, critical thinking is required, and the 21st century
skills and state technology TEKS are realized.

Resources
Our campus is a completely wireless campus! We currently have
one 25 station PC computer lab that is available for scheduling and five
wireless laptop carts that are assigned one per grade level. Teachers can plan
for teaching with technology by checking out a media cart equipped with a
laptop, LCD projector, and document camera through our library media center.
Additionally, we have a good supply of digital still cameras and digital video
cameras for both students and staff to use. We currently have three Promethean
interactive whiteboards on campus, two that remain in a specified classroom and
one that is mobile, and we are planning to expand that inventory this year.
Students have access to a wide array of software titles ranging from
Microsoft Office 2007, Photo Story and MovieMaker to Photoshop Elements, Music
Maestro, and Lego Robotics software.
