Indeed, every goal and target in the state plan appears in this RCPS plan. And each target has a section for the current status of that target in Rockingham County as well as an action plan for full implementation of the target.
Any plan, whether a technology plan or otherwise, should focus on continuing to do what is being done well and state a course of action to achieve those goals not yet reached. This is precisely what the 2007 Technology Plan for Rockingham County Public Schools has tried to accomplish. The Technology Plan Update calls for Rockingham County Public Schools to continue to provide the technologies, services, and support it has provided for many years but to keep an eye on the technological horizon.
