Cameron Elementary received approximately $25,000 from this grant to complete their computer lab.  The Technology Literacy Challenge Fund is a federal grant program to help stimulate local, state and private sector partnerships focused on fully integrating technology into teaching and learning to help ensure that all students are technologically literate by the dawn of the 21st century.  Congress has appropriated funding for this effort to specifically advance the President's four goals for technology in education.  The four goals are:
 

1.  All teachers will have the training and support they need to help all students learn through computers    and through the information superhighway.
2.  All teachers and students will have modern computers in their classrooms.
3.  Every classroom will be connected to the information superhighway.
4.  Effective and engaging software and on-line resources will be an integral part of every school curriculum.
