Welcome to the Portland Public Schools Tech Plan for 2009 - 2012. This plan covers our school district's technology goals, policies, and purchases for the school years: 2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12. For reference, the current plan is located here.

This plan has been posted as a Wiki to allow you, as PPS employees, Board Members, Students, Parents, and Portland Community to:

• Add thoughts and ask questions. To do this, choose threads to comment on someone else’s comment/question or start a new thread to make a new comment or ask a question. You can also use my email link to send a question or comment directly to me if you like.
• Make changes or modifications. To do this, choose easy edit at the top of the page. Your edits will be posted as modifications to the tech plan!*

NOTE: In order to contribute, you will need to register and create a username and password. This will let us know who is contributing and allow us to ask follow up questions as needed. The plan is divided up into State of Michigan recommended sections to make it easier to read and to respond.

Your input is very important to the success of PPS, its staff and students. We strive to provide a highly effective learning environment for our students that will prepare them to be successful in today's and tomorrow's global society.

Enjoy and thank you!
