ELK CITY HIGH SCHOOL

Up

            We began classes in our new facility in August of 1999.  Each classroom is equipped with at least one computer networked with the administrative offices, and a television connected to the media retrieval system.  We also have a surveillance system with video cameras for observing and recording activity in the building.  Furthermore, several classrooms are equipped with scanners, printers, PC-to-TV converters, overhead projectors, and other equipment.

             We encourage communication between the community and the school.   Conferences with teachers and/or administrators are available upon request.

Library Resources                                       

        Our library is located in the center of the building.  We have 10 computers for student use, a computer designated for the card catalog and a circulation computer.  We also have two network laser printers, one for student use and one for teacher use.  A typewriter is available for use on items such as scholarship forms.  Thanks to the State Department of Education, we have access to several databases:  EBSCO, First Search, Electric Library, and Infotrac.  These are wonderful resources for research.  The user names and passwords to be used from remote locations (home, etc.) are available upon request from Mrs. Wood (English Dept.) or Mrs. Robinson in the library.
