Clarion-Goldfield maintains dual platforms of windows and OS. This is done to provide strengths for OS graphics and PC research and data manipulation. The superintendent supports building decisions of the buildings with assistance of computer instructor and other staff. With MicroSoft Office, it really doesn't matter which platform to use. The district only supports Office. Even if home systems use Works, Word Perfect, Lotus, etc, only Office is supported. Wireless is the directions the district has been using with porable lab carts and laptops. These are i-Books.
