We have to ensure that each student, regardless of what school they go to, has the same access to the most up-to-date technological resources. I plan to continue the fight for unblocking school Wi-Fi, expanding cell phone rights, and speeding up chromebook repair times.

 

 School WiFi 

 

• Make important changes to the current WiFi systems

  • Double bandwidth and speeds for students

  • Fully unblock the school WiFi

  • Ensuring the system is secure and that no privacy infringement occurs

• Expedite the system-wide computer upgrade to Windows 10.

 

 Cell Phone Rights 

 

• Add a clause to the Students Rights and Responsibilities guide that provides the right for all high schoolers and middle schoolers to use their cell phones during lunch

  • Keep up with middle school principals to make sure this policy is not infringed

  • Continue expanding the Phones During Lunch task force to provide middle school SGA’s with the tools to talk to their administrations as well

• Work with the Chief Technology Officer to implement a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy in every high school and middle school

 

 Maintaining Current Technology 

 

• Urge the addition of more technology infrastructure, including security cameras, and their use.

• Work with the Chief Technology Officer to allow personal account sign-ins on Chromebooks

• Expedite the process of updating all worn out Promethean Boards countywide with the new touch-screen model.
