Staff Tech Group


Beginning in October join me in the Library for a round table chat/Q&A session that will be held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at 3:00PM. Any staff member is invited to attend. The group has multiple purposes.


  1. To address challenges you may face with implementing technology into your classroom. 
  2. Share any helpful technology your using in your curriculum that others may benefit from. 
  3. Just to ask any computer questions (large or small) that may help you make it through the day with a little more ease.

Chromebooks For All


The Chromebook offers a perfect solution for the 1:1 dilemma facing schools. Not only is it a cheaper solution then others offer but it's the easiest to manage. Worcester Central School will be rolling out Chrome devices for our 2nd-12th graders in the start of the 2013-2014 school year. For more information please click the following link>>

Access School Files At Home?

The teachers at Worcester are very committed to their students. Since I started at Worcester about a year ago I’ve been getting requests from Teachers and Staff to be able to access their school files from home. In the 2014 school year it will be as easy as signing into your email. As the new school year rounds the corner more information will be provided here and in your work email.

New Email Platform

To streamline our network and cut down on cost we're switching how we do Email. Google offers a perfect solution that fits inline with our mentality here at Worcester, simple, clean and just works. Granted will have a few bumps along the way as we all are leaning this new email medium. In the long run it will give us the features we currently use with Microsoft Outlook and a host of other goodies.  January 1st 2013 will be the official day that we will be up and running on Gmail.
