Student Tech Teams

All of our five high schools have student technology teams. At present, these teams meet during enrichment times, before or after school. Besides working in their own schools, they have worked as a district team to help our corporation to develop policies and resources that enhance our revolution.

Using students to help solve technology problems is a solution that is working in the schools. Students are clever, quick to learn, and motivated. These teams have been successful in helping with troubleshooting, repair, creating digital resources, professional development, and even classroom instruction.

If you have questions about the school tech team or know a student who would like more information about getting involved, contact the eLearning coach at the high school.
