The prices of computers vary widely. In years past, a comput- er was out of the reach of many people because of their price. Now, computer prices have dropped drastically. A basic ' desktop model can be had for around $700. "A top of the line desktop computer with printer and scanner setup will run any- where from $1,700 to $2,400," said Smith. "A good laptop will be in the $1,300 dollar range it HOYLE From 1B Custodian of the Year - Bob Morris, East. . Bus Driver of the Year - Delores Littlejohn KM Middle.

The main thing to think about when you buy a computer is the use it will be put to and how much power you actually need for the job." A new twist on the computer theme are handheld models that act as organizers. Some handhelds can synchronize in- formation with larger comput- ers, sort e-mail, and send faxes. Popular models of handhelds include Casio Cassiopeia, and | the IBM Workpad. For most students, computers are not a luxury but a necessity. More and more colleges are making PC ownership a re- quirement. Western Carolina University in Cullowhee was one of the first colleges to make computers a dorm room re- quirement. In Cleveland County, Gardner-Webb University does not require per- sonal ownership of a computer, but as with most schools, the in- creasingly technical nature of study and communication makes owning a computer an unwritten rule. With recent figures showing that the number of American workers who utilize a computer in their jobs tripling since 1990 to more than 11 million, the need for students to be comput- er proficient is obvious. Wit the future in mind, purchasing a computer for your student to use is an investment in success. May 13, 1999 Kay Walker KMHS BY ALAN HODGE Staff Writer ‘Kings Mountain High School's teacher of the month for May can take her students to any place in the universe and any time in history- through books. An English teacher with a long term love of literature, Kay Walker is one of those spe- cial people passionate about her work and mission. "I try to teach my students that what you read from any time period can be applied to life today,” Walker said. "There is so much in literature that is relevant to things happening right now." A native of Lawndale, Walker began her dreams of teaching English at an early age. After graduation from Burns High School and Gardner-Webb University, Walker embarked on her teaching career. This is the second year she's been at Kings Mountain High. "I really enjoy working here," _ Walker says. "The faculty and students are like one big fami- ly." One thing that sets Walker apart from some educators is that she is truly interested in her students as persons. > Teacher of Month KAY WALKER "My goal is to combine a love of English literature with a con- cern for my students," said Walker. "I want them to under- stand that I care as much about them as people as them making a perfect score on a test. I try to teach them real-world skills as well as foster a sense of creativi- ty, and self-esteem." Like a heroine in one of the great works of literature she teaches, Kay Walker has set high standards for herself and her students- and means to achieve them.
