Campus Tech Support
Tech support at Pleasant Hill is currently on voluntary basis by a teacher. We do not have a paid tech. Person to be named will be the
ITRC and informs the campus of any technology updates.
Future Vision and Direction
In 3 years we would like to have the school completely on a PC platform. We would also like each teacher to have access to a
projector and document camera. We would like all teachers to be knowledgeable and willing to use computers, projectors and all other
technological equipment independently and on a daily basis.
Campus Improvement Plan Alignment
Students will use learning.com in centers a minimum of two times per month to support math and science learning in the centers time.
