Community

The technology vision for Glenview School District 34:

//We will remain at the forefront of technology integration and the development of technological literacy across our learning community in order to meet the needs of a constantly evolving world.

In collaboration with parents and the community, the Glenview Public Schools are committed to providing progressive and productive technologies for educators and for students as we prepare them to become lifelong learners and responsible decision makers in a changing society. We value technology as a tool for its ability to facilitate communication and enhance the learning of all students within and beyond the classroom walls.//

Questions to reflect on as you review and provide feedback to the following plan:
 * What are the key student outcomes we as a district are trying to influence through our investment in technology?
 * How can technology investments improve a teacher’s ability to effectively reach more students?
 * How are the elements of the Tech Plan intended to help advance one or more critical D34 initiatives -- e.g., how is the Tech Plan related to PLC initiatives?
 * “Success Indicators” has a nice ring, but what are the measures?

__Guiding Principle__

Community Involvement:

- Use technology appropriately to bridge the communication gaps between the district and its stakeholders
