As technology grows in importance in our society and our schools it has become clear that USD259 needs to identify what technology skills our teachers and students need to succeed in the 21st Century. A committee, the Technology Standards for Teachers and Students (TSTS), was created by the Instructional Technology Department to evaluate and revise the district's technology standards. The membership consists of teachers, administrators, technology professionals and staff from across the district.

The committee recommended the adoption of the International Society of Technology in Education (ISTE) performance indicators for teachers and students to the Board of Education and the adoption of the standards was approved. The committee has customized the performance indicators to meet the varied needs of educators in our district. If you have any questions, please contact the Instructional Technology Department.

Other curricular standards may be viewed at the Learning Services website.
