IT director proposes scoreboards and reports WiFi boost to soccer field
Summary
IT Director Jered Rush reported WiFi reach has been boosted to the soccer field, said access will be password-protected, and said he is gathering quotes to buy scoreboards for athletic facilities from the technology budget.
IT Director Jered Rush told the board he has boosted WiFi to reach the soccer field and that access will be password protected; he said he approves devices before they join the network and plans to set the system up this summer.
Rush also said he is collecting quotes to purchase scoreboards for the soccer field and gyms and proposed taking the cost from the technology budget. The board did not take immediate action on equipment purchases; Rush said he would bring quotes for review.
Why this matters: improving connectivity to athletic fields and replacing or adding scoreboards affects after-hours events, spectator experience and maintenance decisions. If the district pays for scoreboards from the tech budget, that will affect available funds for other IT priorities.
