Good to Know: Practical Insights for Schools 

Illuminating the intersection of education, technology, and accountability. 

Technology is the nervous system of every modern K-12 organization. From student records and classroom tools to district communications and security systems, IT shapes nearly every aspect of how schools function. Yet too often, technology departments are treated as a back-office necessity rather than a strategic safeguard.

Good to Know is my space to shine a light on the realities many districts overlook, the power of IT done right, and the pitfalls of practices left unchecked. Here you’ll find articles and resources that expose the risks of lackadaisical oversight, show how “God-mode” access or unchecked administrators can compromise trust, and highlight the policies and practices that keep schools safe, accountable, and resilient.

My goal is simple: to help educators, leaders, and communities understand that technology isn’t just a tool, it’s a responsibility. When we take IT governance seriously, we protect not only data, but also the students, staff, and public trust that schools are built on.
