This summer, we will begin upgrading our schools with “future-ready” technology, starting with Carus, Lee, Baker Prairie, and Canby High. While we cannot entirely predict the future of instructional technology, we can examine best practices, work with our staff, and prepare for it as best as possible. For example, the wiring going into classrooms supports a shift to the most up-to-date wireless technology currently available.
Upgrades will include ceiling and wall-mounted projectors, wall-mounted televisions in key meeting and instructional areas, wireless display technology for both staff and student devices, voice amplification systems, improved wireless connectivity, synchronized building-wide clocks, updated bell systems, talkback public address systems, state-of-the-art security cameras and new badge access systems. These upgrades are expected to improve safety, enhance student learning, and offer ease of use for teachers.
