Technology Ramblings

As we approach the eve of our annual Jog-a-Thon, it struck me that we are currently without an active Technology Committee and thus, our Technology Plan is falling out of relevance. Each year we raise a significant amount of money to enhance the school's technology program, and we are doing an excellent job in keeping the students, the classrooms and the teachers up to date. But technology changes so quickly that sometimes a plan can become outdated within a couple of years, so over planning almost seems futile. Its a true Catch-22.

We have a tremendous amount of parent-genrerated energy taking place at the school right now, and it's exciting to see because this kind of energy will result in the goals getting set and these goals being met. We need to re-energize our Technology Committee to ensure that we set realistic goals and that we meet these goals, rather than just wait for another twelve months to roll around and then decide how we should best spend the money we raise. Additionally, we need to gather individuals who are able to view the future of education and where technology fits in, while also realizing that technology does not just include computers and related products.

Consider signing up to be apart of this committee. Let myself or Mr. Jaco know that this is something you are interested in, and lets continue to build upon the momentum that is driving our school into the future.
