Limon Child Development Center will use the ECB Giving Back - Looking Forward $4,815.00 to update their technology. We have four computers in the center that are over 10 years old. Two of these are classroom computers that we would like to replace with all in one computers which provide a large screen so that children can see educational experience on the computer easily. Educational experiences include children's stretching activities, children's dance videos, and stories. The other two computers are administration computers which are necessary for the daily operation of the center. Our current computers are too old to be updated and are obsolete. The cost for all computers will be $5,000. Each classroom has an iPad for documentation of students progress. Two of our current iPads are needing replaced. A new iPad or tablet will cost $500 for a total of $1,000.
We are also needing an air purifier for our there year old classroom. All other classrooms have an air purifier which the teachers have found to help reduce the spread of sickness during cold and flu season. A new air purifier is $600.
Next we need to have our sprinkler system tested. We have a wet and dry sprinkler system in our building and it is required to have an internal pipe assessment every 5 years as well as a hydrostatic test. The cost of these tests are $2,220. We would like to have the sprinkler testing completed by the end of September. Our final project is rekeying our building. The keys are the same as when the building opened in 1998. We have had many keys get lost and doors replaced that use a different key. Some
doors, the keys get stuck or will not unlock the door correctly. We would like to rekey the building so that one key can be used in all doors and we have security knowing there are not unknown keys out granting others access. Our quote from the locksmith is a cost of $810 to rekey our building.
