DIGITAL
DISCONNECT
A "digital disconnect"
between teachers and students is preventing students from maximizing the
educational value of the Internet for classroom work, according to a
study by Pew Internet. WestNET's goal is to help bridge that disconnect
for students.

THE FINAL
THIRTY FEET
The Big Impact Project for WestNET
involves a partnership with businesses to complete the Final Thirty Feet
of the Westford Public Schools network to connect the students.
Technologies such as SmartBoards, laptops, PDAs are needed to enhance
and improve the instruction to Westford's students.
WestNET works in collaboration with
the Westford Public Schools on its goals.
