Support for instructional technology
The district plays a powerful role in helping middle schools purchase and make good use of instructional technology. Although some teachers and principals are up-to-date on technology innovations, others feel overwhelmed and need professional help to keep track of new hardware and software that will improve instruction, student record-keeping, family connections, and data analysis. Local governing board members support instructional excellence by providing district technology specialists who can help schools with purchases and training on new hardware and software.
