I teach physics (have done so for 22 years) at a technical two-year college
in New York State.  We use the PASCO equipment - smart pulleys and photogates
with computers - along with Vernier software.  There's a basis for an
entire computer-based lab if that's the way you want to go.  I question
doing that to the exclusion of hands-on measurements and calculations.

However, PASCO has a terrific support system.  I just spent a day at one
of their workshops.  They say more than half of their customers are high
schools.  Good luck.
