The document summarizes the STaR Chart, a self-assessment tool for schools to evaluate their technology integration efforts. The STaR Chart examines four key areas: Teaching and Learning, Educational Preparation and Development, Leadership/Administration/Support, and Infrastructure. It provides progress indicators to show where schools fall from Early Tech to Target Tech. The summary shows that in 2009-2010, Canyon Lake High School rated Advanced in all four key areas according to their STaR Chart. The conclusion states that technology integration is required by law and that schools must achieve the Target Tech rating by 2020 to meet Texas' Vision 2020 goals.
