**Purpose **
The purpose of the 2010-11 Monte Vista Staff Development Plan is to provide a one year course for technology training to all classified staff and certificated teachers. The technology use goals for the staff and students of Monte Vista are:
 * to improve productivity
 * to enhance learning
 * to increase collaboration
 * to deepen understanding of subject matter

Technology training is a key to ensure that our teachers and staff are proficient and comfortable with all of the technology resources available to our school. As technological fluency is achieved, teachers and staff will be equipped to fully integrate technology into the daily curriculum. The following plan is proposed to ensure these goals are met. The plan will use guidelines set by the National Staff Development Council.
