I don't go to school anymore, but here is the link to the school system work for Carroll County Public Schools http://www.carrollk12.org

I am a Systems Specialist for Technology Services.

We are the fastest growing School system (technology Wise) in the state. and the the second largest in on the east coast, right behind Miami.

in the past two years we have grown very fast, there now are two computers for every three stundets in the schools (40+)

I think one of the coolest things about our school is our huge tv screen in the football statium. Largest screen in any college or professional sport, 30' H 107' W.

University of Arkansas. It's a beautiful screen but it tears us up sometimes. We will be watching a play and a ref calls a penalty on us. Everyone can tell it was a bad call. They do the replay and we can all see the ref was wrong but the call cannot be changed. Although that should change next year with the new NCAA rules.

When the first started using the screen, Fighter jets were dispatched to the area because of the frequencey it was giving was a distress signal or something like that. We got that problem fixed real fast. Also during the summer when they were installing it I saw them playing Bug's Life on it as wel as a game of Unreal Tourney.

bill clinton is an arkansas fan i think

did/does he go to games and then have some school cameraperson invade his privacy? i could see it now, president bill stuffing five cheeseburgers or donuts down his throat and running out of soda while on full view of thousands of people :)

Well of course he is a fan, he is from Arkansas. When he was President he used to usually fly in to watch us play Cincinatti. We would all have to go through metal dectectors and there were Secret Service everywhere. It was kind of neat, and he always sat in the crowds, not in box or something like that.

one would expect southern california residents richard nixon, gerald ford, and ronald reagan to come to usc or ucla games, but noooo, they are too "special" :)

maybe if clinton, carter, or bush sr. decide to retire in california, then one of them could attend a game or two in my neck of the woods

of course for lakers games in southern cal, just about every celebrity and has been celebrity, and wanna be up and coming celebrity all have to see the lakers play and hopefully, win...it's kind of a bore, actually, but if all those celebs descended on a hawks game or cavaliers game, then that would be something

before gang bangers, only raiders fans would wear the black and silver fan jackets and caps, but since then when you see someone coming up to you in the dark in an urban area with a raiders item on, you better run, or at least be a quick draw

I suppose that to our younger members, it seems that we went to school in the middle ages. We were in school during the good old days. :D

Simply for football, nothing more or nothing less. It really enhances the football game.

My high school is possibly the ugliest building ever. It is a cement and ciderblock 1960's piece of crap. On top of that, the school is falling apart.. :rolleyes:
