The kindergarten class has completed their training and loved it, said Mrs. Young. The kindergarteners learn to write their names, and are thrilled to see their name on the screen, she said. They also enjoy drawing pictures on the screen, and soon learn which letters on the keyboard will produce a drawing of a flag, or a dog. The flag takes 20 letters, but the children have no problem learning how to do it, she added. Parent volunteers are handling all the computer training at the school, said Mrs. Young, with groups of volunteers for each grade, ranging from 12 in kindergarten to 16 working with the fifth and sixth graders. "We hope to increase awareness of computers and technology and motivate young people and parents to get involved with computers. "Maybe they can come to the fair, see the different kinds of computers available and what each can do and make an informed decision as to what they would want in their homes. she remarked. "It's exciting to have each student introduced to computers, said assistant principal Julene Oliver, who is assisting Mrs. Young in preparations for the fair. "Computers are now a necessary part of life and becoming more so all the time. she said "Education needs to meet the needs of the future, which for these children includes computers "And it is very nice to have the cooperation of the PTA and parents in presenting this program to the students." she concluded Viklund, Katie Vranes, Michael Vranes, Amgela Walker, Heather Walton, Natalie Ware, Daren Wightman, Megan Qright, Allan Zieber and Chelsea Zobell. . . .
