Both facilities are fairly standard systems with AMX Television Managers in the classrooms and racks of Sony SLV-D380 DVD/VHS combo units in the Head End.  Synergy (the predecessor to Phoenix) was installed at both schools in 1997.  The upgrade to Phoenix occurred over a one-week period in April of 2007.  The district is in the process of installing NEC VT580 projectors in classrooms and so the upgrade to Phoenix was well timed.  Phoenix will enable them to continue to use their existing televisions until they are phased out while also having the ability to schedule and control the projectors through a central interface.

Realm Control Corp. extends thanks to Joseph Snare, the Director of Technology, for selecting Phoenix as the upgrade path for their schools.  We would also like to mention the Library Media Center staff: Wrenn Kibler, Angela Saunders, and Sara Siemiatkowski.  Special thanks to Jim Maloney and the entire IT / Technical staff for assistance during the upgrade process.
