District reports E-rate/CIPA rollout, camera fixes and career‑tech grant activities
Summary
District technology and CTE staff reported a secure network rollout, E‑rate/CIPA materials for teachers, replacement of damaged cameras at Northwood High and a Southeast Regional Education Board (SREB) grant to design middle‑school career exploration tied to local Launchpad events and an upcoming ProStart cafe soft launch.
District technology and career-technical staff (speaker 9) updated the board on several operational items: new CIPA materials and classroom integration for Internet-safety instruction tied to E-rate compliance, a secure-network password rollout, firmware updates and replacements for failing cameras at Northwood High, and the installation of special-education cameras per audit timelines. The tech lead noted a vendor shipping issue but said the most problematic cameras were replaced and that the district has narrowed repeat failures to two devices while monitoring the rest.
On CTE, the district described an SREB-supported middle-school career-exploration project targeting 6th–8th graders, collaboration with neighboring counties and an upcoming series of community events at the Launchpad (a tailgate, tractor show and ProStart café soft launch). The district encouraged board members to attend regional events and said the regionwide SREB work will provide boots-on-the-ground data to shape pathways into high-school career-technical programs.
Board members asked for clearer reporting formats for outside vendor monthly reports and noted requests for officers to cover more sporting events; staff said they will refine reporting templates and request additional officer presence as available.
