The document discusses the Texas STaR Chart, a tool used from 2007-2010 to assess technology use and needs at the campus, district, and state level based on the Texas Long-Range Plan for Technology. The STaR Chart helps schools evaluate their current technology status, set goals, and prioritize funding. Specific data is provided on the strengths and weaknesses of technology at SHS, with leadership and infrastructure as strengths but educator preparation and development as weaknesses.
