Director Koschinska outlines asset management and 10-year technology plan; board hears cybersecurity collaboration
Summary
Director Koschinska told the board the district is implementing a new asset-management process, developing a 10-year technology plan and working with peer districts to share cyber-security best practices.
Director Koschinska told the Waconia Public School District board on Feb. 9 that district IT staff are implementing a new asset-management process and developing a 10-year technology plan intended to guide hardware and software purchasing, lifecycle replacement and support.
The update emphasized cybersecurity collaboration: Koschinska said IT staff regularly consult with peers in other districts to share best practices for defending systems and student data. The presentation did not include a vote, budget figure or specific timelines for implementation; board members asked for follow-up and additional details at future meetings.
The technology plan is presented as proactive preparation for forecasted needs rather than a specific procurement request at this meeting. Koschinska described the asset-management process as a step to inventory devices and track replacement schedules to support equitable access across schools.
Board members did not take formal action at the work session; the item will be revisited as staff develop the plan and present implementation options with costs and timelines.
