Through our district's 1:1 program, adaptive computer programs and personalized learning initiative we are better able to meet the 21st century needs of all our students and families and to prepare them to actively contribute in their community once they finish their educational career.

We utilize the annual LCAP stakeholder meetings/surveys to gauge and quickly adapt to our school community's technology needs. However, in our day to day practice we are also guided by three questions:

1. What technology will have the largest impact on the education of our students?
2. How will we train our teachers and staff to use it effectively to meet the need of the Common Core and 21st-century learning?
3. How can we plan deployments responsibly to ensure sustainability?
