In this episode, Thomas and Becky break down their School Technology Checklist, offering practical guidance for school leaders and tech coordinators. They discuss the importance of managing access to critical systems, maintaining robust infrastructure, and ensuring regular device updates and backups. The conversation is filled with real-life examples, from the challenges of lost admin access to the value of having clear documentation and multiple staff members with key responsibilities.

The hosts also explore strategies for effective communication, both in emergencies and everyday school operations, highlighting tools like Google Classroom and Seesaw. They emphasize the need for sustainable funding plans, the benefits of involving students in tech support roles, and the importance of building a collaborative tech leadership team. Whether you’re new to school tech or looking to refine your processes, this episode is packed with actionable tips to keep your school organized, secure, and ready for anything.
