Kalama School District 548 China Garden Road, Kalama WA, 98625 Tel: 360-673-5807 E-Mail: bob.vonroch@kalamasd.org TECHNOLOGY STATUS REPORT REPORT SUMMARY Report Date Time Period Name Prepared By September 19, 2024 07/22/2024 — 09/19/2024 Bob Von Roch Status Summary To sum up since my last written report was in July. August was a standard month of ensuring that our campus technology was ready for staff and students coming back. Zach worked diligently on making sure all student devices were tested and updated, then assigned and sorted for students to be issued in their home room. We ended up having students pick up their issued computer on the second day of school. Because my order of additional devices was running late our counts for covering everyone was tight. We did get a break in that there was a larger number of running start students then anticipated, and typically we do not assign a device to running start students. There are some who still attend an advanced level math class and that class is very dependent on technology in those cases we setup a check out cart in the library for those students. There were some glitches with staff printing to start the year due to the update of our printer server, but once we identified the issue it was remedied as we meet up with staff, unfortunately it did take a personal or virtual visit to correct the issue. Some good news Kalama School District was awarded two grants that | applied for. One is centered around Cybersecurity, and it will allow me to contract a 3 party vendor to help do a GAP analysis of our current Cybersecurity posture and develop our frameworks for this we were awarded $30,000.00. The other grant is to replace lost, stolen and broken devices | was able to ask for $24,645.00 which had a maximum of $25,000.00. Projects: Cybersecurity: Start working with our 3 party vendor to complete our GAP analysis. Fiscal: Start evaluating strategies and opportunities to reduce overall costs. Safety: Update the Kalama Safety Plan to include SRP frameworks.
