The document discusses the Texas Campus STaR Chart, a tool that assesses a school's technology readiness based on the state's Long-Range Plan for Technology. It provides the STaR Chart profile for Chisholm Trail Middle School, which shows the school is at the "Advanced" level in teaching and learning, educator preparation, and leadership. However, the school's goal is to achieve the highest "Target" level in all areas, including reducing the student to computer ratio. The STaR Chart can help schools evaluate their technology status, measure progress towards state goals, and identify areas for improvement.
