At the Board Meeting of April 24, the Sweetwater School Board approved the purchase of Lenovo laptops for 11th grade, thus continuing our commitment to deliver 1:1 devices for all of our students.  Therefore, in 2017-18 our high schools will utilize personal devices for all students from 9th to 11th grade with the intention of adding seniors in the 2018-19 school year.

I encourage all of our SUHSD teachers and community to review our EdTech 3 year plan (draft) to see where we are heading with technology integration.  Feel free to use the comment button on the Google Doc to share your thinking and ideas. Here is a portion of that plan that includes our goals in 3 areas.

This plan will be supported by Professional Development from the EdTech department and site created Professional Development designed by Site Tech Teams consisting of an Assistant Principal, Blended Learning Specialist, Librarian and two other classroom teachers.

SUHSD EdTech Vision

EdTech is about Learning!   Technology is ubiquitous AND invisible as air.

Students will gain content mastery and essential life skills through active engagement  in pedagogically diverse environments.  They will communicate their understanding in authentic and creative ways.
