Tech committee meetings are moving to after school so others can attend meetings

Mike H to Create a "going Google" website for NCAHS to start to disseminate info about the process

Feedback from SSVT about their going Google process:
-they don't archive student emails
-they do dual mail delivery at the outset
-don't block Facebook, YouTube, etc. teach students responsible use
-no parents, just faculty and staff
-group students by grade level, no larger group of "all students"
-use google classroom for grade book, folders, distribution, etc. popular with teachers

Looking at the issues list
We need a "crisp statement" of "why we are doing this?" Discussion about some of the answers to this question

Discussion of what sort of training the "tech team" would need to be able learn what is necessary to do this

What are next steps? Discussion of a consultant and what role that person would play

Discussion of forming a project group that meets more frequently to get this going headed by a project leader. We need more frequent meetings to get done all that we need to get done. Consultant as project manager?

Next meeting within a week with a consultant. Rick will let us know as soon as he can get a consultant here, and we will have our next meeting then. Looking at Monday, Thursday, and Friday of the week of 11/17.

Mike H will work on a timeline/ project plan in the meantime and propose answers to the questions on the issues list.
