Teen Leadership Waco

Congratulations to Kimberly Green and Rebekah Romer on their completion of Teen Leadership Waco Class of 2014!

Technology Survey

Our school will be partnering with BrightBytes, an educational research and analytics organization, to learn more about our schools' technology use for student learning. Thanks to ESC Region 12, we have access to this service at no cost to our district.

Our goal is to gather metrics on technology access and skills, and on our district's technology environment, in order to understand the connection between technology use and student achievement. This will be done through a comprehensive framework called CASE that looks at the Classroom factors, Access to technology, teacher and student Skills and Environmental factors.

To gain these insights, we must provide BrightBytes with a complete picture of technology use at school and at home within our district. We will be asking students, teachers, and parents to participate in the project and to provide input by completing a short questionnaire. All responses are anonymous and no identifying data will be collected.

Your participation is important to us and will make the difference between having a complete versus a limited understanding of our district's current technology use and future technology needs. To take the Parent Survey for the High School Campus, click here: http://www.BByt.es/9V7YP
