If you’re not telling your own story, someone else will and you won’t have a say in what those chapters look like. Great advice, Rob!

The scaffolding Rob talks about is so important - building strategic partnerships, building ongoing datasets to be data informed, and telling your story are all transferrable skills.

So much great information and Happy B-Day Diane. Looking for what the very first step should/could be? The first step to move towards effective evaluation of VOI?

From Rob, again: https://www.usd259.org/tech

Definitely interested learning more about student lead support teams... so many different models across districts...

Here is a VILS resource on Student Tech Teams: https://verizon.digitalpromise.org/toolkit/student-tech-teams/

Thanks Diane!

Hi @Ryan! I always suggest finding out your current reality. Getting a good grip on what your school district has (asset management) will give you baseline information for building lifecycles then showing the value.

Example of initiative to Future Ready Gear
