Plan Implementation, Monitoring, and Evaluation

The FY 2023-2027 Technology Plan will provide the foundation for technology initiatives. During
the next three years, the District will use the Plan to establish priorities, a portfolio of projects,
and budgets. A blueprint of technology initiatives will be developed each year.

As a continuous improvement process, the Technology Plan will be reviewed annually by
technology leadership to ensure that initiatives are in alignment with the plan objectives, as well
as, to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of the initiatives. The plan may be adjusted and the
budget and priorities may also change due to legislative mandates, District programs, and the
technology budget. To successfully implement the priorities of increased teacher effectiveness
and student achievement, the District will follow a four-step process:

1. Define priorities and strategic requirements.
2. Define a blueprint of projects that are in direct alignment with the District’s priorities.
3. Continuously monitor the implementation.
4. Develop a balanced scorecard for the evaluation of quality and effectiveness.
