Call George 530-736-4800 Supporting students - Digital and information revolution As our society experiences more technology in the form of tweets, texts, likes, apps, pads, and clouds, it's hard to guess what the future holds for our technologically centric lives. One thing for certain is the sim- ple fact that we will rely on our youth to lead the way in our next generation of technology. Red Bluff Joint Union High School District is committed to providing an educational experience which uses technology to help stu- dents achieve their educational goals. Technology in the district not only serves as an educational tool for stu- dents and educators, but also supports the district's many operational func- tions. Here is a small view into technolo- gy at the district: RBJUHSD maintains about 750 desktop computer systems, including seven labs of 30 or more computers, 25 classroom based labs or "mini- labs," four mobile laptop carts, and a host of other electronic devices used for presentation and digital learning. Forty computer servers provide sup- port for applications such as email, web services, library services, food services, transportation, educational software, and many other manage- ment or operational needs of the orga- nization. The district stores and manages nearly three terabytes of data. For those of us normal people who do not speak technobab- ble that equates to about one million print quality dig- ital photographs. The current student popula- tion alone has created over 68,000 Microsoft Word documents, and about 10,000 Power Point presentations related to objectives assigned in their coursework. Nearly 85 percent of all classrooms on the Red Bluff High School campus have an integrated projector system used on a daily basis to help engage students with presentation, multi- media, and internet based learning content. Five computer labs are dedicated to instruction on the following industry technologies: A+ certification (infor- mation technology), electronics, CAD (Computer Aided Design), Microsoft Office, Photoshop, accounting, web design, video production and film making, broadcast technology (93.1 KRBHLP FM), and graphic design. Parents can login to the district's Dave Lopez Student Information website or "Par- entVUE," which provides information related to their children on attendance, class schedules, course history, period or semester grades, and more up-to- date grade book informa- tion posted by teachers on current assignments. Every student has access to the same information about their progress by using a similar website called "StudentVUE." Technology makes us faster but people still matter most. For most of us taking on the job of maintaining just one computer is a tall order, let alone managing many com- puters connected together in a comput- er network. Technology in the Red Bluff Joint Union High School District is made possible by a team of eight folks who take pride in supporting the individuals who consume and learn from technology. Without these peo- ple and many others like them, increased student achievement and preparing our students for the next generation of technology would sim- ply not be possible. Dave Lopez is director of technology services at Red Bluff Joint Union High School District.
