Each school’s local technology plans are reflected in the district plan and play a major role in the total planning for the system.   The requests made in the local plans are reflected in the budget of the system-wide plan. The district technology budget is developed to reflect the needs of the district and is evaluated to ensure that the funding is in line with district expectations. Likewise, the district technology plan outlines the amounts and variety of technologies that will be received at the school level. 

 

The district-level Technology Advisory Committee or a subset of the committee reviews the local school technology plans:

-        to ensure compatibility with system-level goals,

-        to promote awareness among the schools of others' efforts,

-        to identify areas of commonality to help coordinate purchasing, training, maintenance and support,

-        to ensure system-level support in these areas, and to recommend a level of financial support from the Board of Education for the up-coming year.
