SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve Additions to the Current Three Year District Technology Plan
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Technology Plan is used to align District strategic goals and objectives to available technologies and resources. The 3-year Technology Plan that was approved by the School Board on June 15, 2010, is valid through June 2013. 

The E-Rate program requirements include having an approved technology plan with an estimated budget for the services and equipment requested. This agenda item covers the expansion of wireless networks in schools, approved on March 20, 2012, and the estimated budget for the district’s wide area network in order to meet this requirement.   

District staff, in conjunction with the Technology Steering Committee, are in the process of revamping the Technology Plan for the next five years and will present the new plan for approval through School Board workshops and regular meetings.
