Farewell!

Angela (Angie) Bergt

Angie Bergt left the District after four years
as a Manager and Project Manager for the
IT PMO. While Angie’s tenure was relatively
short, her impact to the District was out-
sized in comparison. Angie joined the
department in December 2019, just a few
months before the COVID-19 pandemic sent
us all to remote work for a year and a half.

Angie had previously worked for vendors
that provided IT services and equipment
to Duval County Schools, providing a
decade of knowledge and experience in the
technology needs of large, urban schools
before joining us here at Palm Beach County.

Angie was instrumental in leading several
large, high-impact projects for Palm Beach
County Schools, including Student 1:1 Devices,
installing WiFi on all District school buses, and
notably, as lead PM for implementing Centegix
CrisisAlert in six weeks for all District schools
and facilities. Other projects Angie led include
Universal Student ID Badges, SIS Document
Center, Teacher Laptop Refresh, IT Security
SIEM POC and Project, and restarting the IT
Student Intern program in 2022. The Student
1:1 Devices Project was selected as “Project
of the Year - 2022” by the South Florida
Chapter of the Project Management Institute.

Angie excelled at large projects with many
moving parts, was a passionate advocate
for the interests of students and the District,
and as a Manager, also worked to help
train, mentor, and coach new staff to the IT
PMO. Angie often said ‘logistics was her
superpower’. Bright, funny, professional, and
dedicated, Angie Bergt was a true asset to the
IT PMO and to the District at-large. We will
miss Angie and her many contributions, but
wish her much success in her new endeavors.
We won’t say “Good Bye, Angie”, but rather
“Until we see you again!”
