TO
THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED:
Technology
is a key priority for all of us as we help prepare our students
to be successful in the technological world of the 21st century.
School administrators can play a key role in this effort by enhancing
their own technology skills, and as such, I would like to call your
attention to a cutting-edge technology training that is available
through the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA)/Texas
Leadership Center.
The
Technology Leadership Academy is a hands-on, comprehensive four-day
seminar designed specifically for superintendents and principals.
One of its primary purposes is to increase technology knowledge
and skills of administrators, including how to support integration
of technology in the classroom.
Technology
Leadership Academies are scheduled at locations throughout all twenty
education service center regions at various times. The attached
one-page flyer provides additional information about the academies.
You may also wish to visit the TASA website at www.tasanet.org/TechConf/
.
If
you have not already participated in the Academy during the past
two years, I strongly encourage you to register for an upcoming
Technology Leadership Academy. Also, please share this information
with other eligible administrators in your district. If you have
any questions about the academies, please do not hesitate to contact
Ellen Bell or Brettany Rhodes, TASA, at 1-800-725-8272 or e-mail
Ellen Bell at Ebell@TASAnet.org.
Sincerely,
Felipe Alanis
Commissioner of Education
