  • Santa's Wood ShoppeWhat a holly jolly Maplewood
  • And in case you didn’t hear…
  • Oh by golly, you gotta see this store
  • Or wait til next year!

    • Season’s blessings to Miss First and Mrs. Blatnick!  Because of their efforts and the generous donation from staff, the First Annual Santa’s Wood Shoppe was an incredible success!

    Students could purchase any item in the store for a quarter, yes just a quarter!  Proceeds went to a family in need.  Unsold, new items are in storage for next year; unsold, used items were donated to charity.

    Way to go, ‘Wood!!  This effort is the ultimate in the spirit of giving!

From the first rickety mechanical type-writers to electronic word processors of the 80s to today’s sophisticated computers, the first Sholes and Glidden keyboard (made by E. Remington and Sons and patented by C.L. Sholes) remains the standard for users worldwide.

    Many other keyboards have come and gone, most notably the Dvorak keyboard in the 1930s which expected to be the prime competition for use on typewriter keyboards.  

    Though tweaked by other countries for specific symbols and adapted for special needs/handicapped, QWERTY remains the standard.

    But the fact remains: it doesn’t really matter what keyboard is used…good typists will type fast, bad typists will not!
