Compliance with Archdiocesan Technology Plan

 ADM 29.0

Each school should develop a Technology Committee. The Technology Committee is responsible for developing a 3-year or 5-year Technology Plan for the school. Schools may use the Technology Plan Template (see below) to create their school's Technology Plan, but it is not required for the 2023-2024 school year. 

The Technology Plan should address the school's educational and administrative needs, hardware and software requirements, and have a technology refresh budget plan. 

Purpose:

• To keep the school current in the area of technology.

Commentary/Procedural Points:

• The plan should be approved by the school board and the principal. 

• If a school chooses not to use the Technology Plan Template, please be sure that your Technology Plan includes:

• • • At least a 3-year annual projected IT budget that includes current aged inventory and replacement plans for:
