Long Range Plan

There are many benefits to using technology in schools. The global workforce our student will be entering is much more reliant on technology than ever before. Parents can more readily access and participate in their child's education. Children today are very diverse in how they learn and are very at ease with today's technology. Technology enhances opportunities for teachers to differentiate lessons. Updating and improving the technology skills of teachers is no less important that any other staff development required of teachers. Indeed, many teachers are much less tech-savvy than their students. As such, it is imperative that technology be a major component of a school's Campus Improvement Plan, devoting fiscal, time, and human resources to the effort.
As an administrator/leader, I must model technology literacy and insist that my staff do so also.
