Antrotech Thoughts

Juneau Douglas High School made a great stride forward by giving all the incoming freshmen laptops, however this has left many of the older and economically disadvantaged students in a technology hole.

Juneau Douglas High School is moving forward in its use and teaching of technology, however I understand it lags behind its compatriots at Thunder Mountain and both middle schools.

It also seems to me that technology is an afterthought in budgeting; this is not going to encourage teachers to use something that might be continuously available.

I have found IT and the school’s Tech people to be highly knowledgeable, friendly and willing to help. I do not know if this is true district wide.

In order for JDHS to catch up in technology to the rest of the district, more money (of course) needs to be placed into buying the current technology, making it available and offer continuous education not only to the students but to the teachers as well.
