Veribest ISD tech director reports REAP purchases and plans for Windows 11 upgrades
Summary
Technology Director Lahne Burns told the board Oct. 13 that REAP grant funds bought teacher laptops, ASUS Chromebooks and Chromebook cases, that a new cafeteria point-of-sale machine was received, and that staff machines are scheduled for Windows 11 upgrades before Windows 10 end-of-life at the end of October.
Technology Director Lahne Burns reported on several technology items in the Oct. 13 packet, including use of REAP grant funds for new teacher laptops and ASUS Chromebooks for seventh grade, Chromebook cases with district logos, and a new cafeteria point-of-sale machine that was received the prior Friday.
Burns said the REAP-funded teacher laptops are touch-screen units with updated docking stations intended to improve classroom workflows and that aides will continue using older laptops with RAM upgrades. "I just received that machine on Friday of this last week," the report states about the cafeteria POS machine, and Burns noted she expected it to be installed by the upcoming board meeting. Burns also said staff machines would be upgraded to Windows 11 by the end of October to align with Windows 10 end-of-life.
The technology report was submitted as part of the packet; no board action was recorded on these items, which were presented for information and implementation by the district technology office.
