Carmel Connects will meet after school on May 2, and continue meeting after school on Mondays for the rest of the 2010-2011 school year. At the meeting, the club will repair donated computers and continue the reimaging process on computers.
On April 18, Mayor Jim Brainard and the CHS administration awarded Carmel Connects with the Governor’s Proclamation.
To achieve its purpose of promoting net and computer literacy among senior citizens, the club fixes computers that are donated by Carmel Clay Schools. Once repaired, Carmel Connects members then give the computers to individuals or groups in the Indianapolis area.
Winans said, “At our past meetings, we talked about increasing net literacy and the reimaging process. We have also repaired or reimaged donated computers.”
Members meet Mondays after school and during IT essentials, which is sponsor Margaret Winans’ first period class on Gold Days. By Natalie Maier <[email protected]>
