Advisory Committee

Information Technology Advisory Committee (ITAC)

Most funding for information technology (IT), whether for the classroom education technology (EdTech), for enterprise applications and data systems, or for infrastructure, comes from capital levies that need engagement and input. The purpose of (ITAC) will be to serve as an advisory committee in planning for future funding as well as to provide expertise and community input on an ongoing basis.

ITAC will receive periodic briefings and be asked to comment, to make recommendations, and/or to give input. The committee will be asked to advise on the strategic alignment, planning, prioritization and implementation of current and future information and education technology projects. Key projects for possible consideration by the committee include (but are not limited to):

  • Identification, scope, and priority of projects for future levies
  • Best practices for use of technology in the classroom
  • Adaptive technology and accessibility for our differently-abled students and community
  • Student data privacy/security
  • Online and blended learning models
  • Cloud and technology-based curriculum
  • Best practices for enterprise IT systems

ITAC was approved at the April 4, 2018 School Board Meeting. Board Action Report
