Technology Article 2008 Yearbook

This article was written for 2008 Greystones, the yearbook at Haverford High School. I was in 11th Grade.

Technology is taking over Haverford High School! Students looked up their grades on PowerSchool, which many could hardly believe was in its first full year. Students also scheduled their classes for next year online. Many students spent hours of time watching videos on YouTube, messaging their friends on Facebook, or challenging their friends to a game of JetMan. In February 2008, over 1,600 students and alumni were on Facebook.

Seniors also submitted their senior quotes on SeniorQuoter, a web application written by junior Michael Plasmeier. Michael also led a group study with senior Gary Hunt, junior Michael Gdovin, and sophomores Shawn Ard and Sean Maguire which built the administration interface during block 1 in the 2nd Quarter. SeniorQuoter was released online for any school to freely use.
