The RSU 9 board of directors convened recently to evaluate the ongoing technology integration within the district. A focal point of the discussion was the recent deployment of iPads for students in grades 6-12. While the rollout has seen several successes, the board acknowledged various challenges that have arisen during this transition.
Additionally, the participation of staff in the ACTEM fall conference was highlighted as a significant opportunity for professional development. This conference provided educators with insights into the latest educational technologies and strategies to enhance classroom engagement. The board expressed optimism about the potential benefits of these initiatives but also recognized the need for ongoing support and training for both students and staff to maximize the effectiveness of the new tools.
As the district continues to navigate these technological advancements, the board remains committed to ensuring that all stakeholders are equipped to thrive in a digitally-enhanced learning environment.
