Re:Price? (Score 0)

At my high school, we have funds for these SmartBoards or whatever they're called because we recieve grant money. The same money goes toward the Computer Systems lab, which has really nice servers and a whole bunch of gigantic monitors, but the rest of the school still has crap computers that take at least 5 minutes just to log in. We indeed do have raggedy roofs and clocks nearly falling off the wall, and in our gym, some of the letters have fallen off the wall where the school name used to be, but there's no money to do anything about it, since the county school board won't give us (yes we're a geek school) any extra money in fear of being accused of discrimination. I personally think they're a waste, but then again, the teachers get paid very little here (no more than normal school teachers) and anything to make their life easier will probably net me a better education.
