Is the average student to computer ratio based on the entire population of students in the eligible schools, all fourth through eighth graders, or the LEAs identified target group of students?
The average student to computer ratio is based on the target group of students identified in the LEAs application and their classroom access to computers 48 months old or newer. The LEA can add an objective for improving the school wide or additional grade level ratio if they’d like. Before setting student-to-computer growth targets, districts are advised to take into account the age of any existing computers in target students’ classrooms and determine if the computers will continue to meet the 48 months old or newer criteria during the two year grant program.
