TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT
The technology department reports to the superintendent and supports both the educational and operational use of computer technology throughout the school district. All departments and offices rely on the daily operational stability of their computer systems, including connections to network resources and the Internet. All certified teachers and administrative staff are issued a wireless laptop computer and routinely use online grade books, electronic attendance reporting, school district email and numerous web resources to carry out their daily routines and required reporting responsibilities. Many of our teachers attend technology training and use 21st century tools routinely in their classrooms. Our students at all grade levels are accessing the Internet for research, communication and collaboration, and are using innovative digital resources on a daily basis. Teachers and students regularly use digital drop boxes and public network drives to transfer assignments electronically and access instructional resources district-wide.
