The Elmore County School system offers 12 traditional grade schools, as well as
numerous other facilities designed to target specific needs.
In 1993, Elmore County distinguished itself by becoming the first in the State
to install and activate the concept of distance learning. The system which was
designed to promote efficiency, and based on the concept of video conferencing,
allows advanced course study through utilizing one teacher for numerous
classrooms throughout the County. The program is used primarily for the study of
foreign languages and advanced math courses.
The Writing to Read Program, a multi-sensory, computer-enhanced literacy program
targeted toward Kindergarten and First Grade students, builds upon the natural
language base children have upon entering school. Through this instructional
program, students are taught to write what they can say, and then read what they
have written.
Computer technology is utilized through out the County system. Each school
library offers access to the internet and numerous computer labs are available
for student use. The first phase of a county-wide computer networking program is
near completion.
All schools utilize the Accelerated Reader Program. Advanced placement courses,
designed for students with excellent study habits, are taught at each of the
high schools on the freshman and sophomore college level.
The Elmore County Technical Center located in Wetumpka, offers vocational
training programs ranging from Drafting and Design Technology to Early Childhood
Education.

This cable is used to pass data to and from the external hard drive 1tb to the computer. The external drive can be operated as a plug-and-play machine. A USB or Firewire compatible PC can recognize the external drive as a storage by giving it a drive letter. The user can then access the external hard device like the usual internal drive. Because of its high storage space and portability, huge sized files can simply be transferred from and to the office and home with the portable external disc drive simply by plugging in the interface cable. Data can be transferred from the P.C. C|computer|personal computer} to the laptop and vice versa. So, if it is office work which needs to be carried home, a working environment can be recreated by just the plug-and-play external hard drive or the user's favourite programs can be easily carried to and from any place to the other.
If many family members are utilizing the same PC, a movable external hard drive comes in useful for storing delicate info separately from the computer's internal drive. Any document or file which is deemed to be too crucial to get accidentally corrupted or lost will be better off in the safety of an external drive. All information and programs can be accessed by plugging in the external drive and then unplugging it and keeping it away after the work is done.
