Ann Sempe and Belinda Smith
continued the recycling effort this
week. They removed outdated
system documentation and
manuals.
Each system CFISD implements
comes with a full compliment of
material that documents the
installation environment as well
as the operations manuals.
In addition to manuals, system
trainers have created training
aides over the years. Ann and
Belinda are updating the training
material.
As the saying goes…

This was an incredible week! Rodney and I were
fortunate to attended the SunGard National
Users Conference (SNUG) in Ft. Worth, Texas.
We were able to learn the latest offerings from
SunGard and how our peers around the country
is adopting the new technologies. While Rodney
and I were away, the team continued to perform
at exceptional levels. We are blessed with a
wonderful team!
