Town Side IT Budget
Former School Application team now fully integrated into IT and functioning well. School apps now also being supported by former Town side app staff
One IT staff was transferred back to Public Safety so IT is down .7 staff
Due to retirement and reorganization IT has four vacancies we are trying to fill. IT salaries and benefits remain non-competitive with private sector alternatives which presents an issue as we attempt to hire new staff.
We need to find a mechanism to absorb new support and maintenance costs as products come off initial 3 year CIP based payment
School Side IT Budget
Request for a part time “webmaster” …
Refresh website
Maintain document categories, titles and searchability
Ensure consistency in structure and look
Essentially serves as Editor or Curator so the 40-50 individual content creators remain aligned
Request for Technology Manager at AHS …
HS has 2000 students and 200 staff supported by a .6 Digital Learning coach. This roughly is the same as what we provide at the elementary level for 20% as many students. Other schools have 4-8X the support
HS staff and students require much more support per student than lower grades
HS needs support for applications and to provide day to day management of the technology vision
HS already has an IT Support Technician assigned full time. To AHS/WMS campus. Technical work orders are resolved with little concern. The real issue is higher level technology usage and planning
