Staff Development Needs
The teachers at T. A. Brown feel that they need more training and support to implement instructional technology in the classroom.
Instructional support are concerns. District support on BTO to provide a teacher of instructional technology would be beneficial. A
timeline for implementation of staff development needs to be created.
Future Vision and Direction
In three years our campus would like to be able to use on-line technology to enrich and supplement the academic curriculum at T. A.
Brown. Teachers will need support and leadership to make this possible. A teacher of instructional technology would be beneficial.
A leadership team will help to support teachers and students utilize technology in the classroom. Implementation of this team will
help to bring T. A. Brown to more acceptable levels of technology (3&4's on the StaR Chart).
