‘Network diet’ for schools?

School District 43 staff and students need to trim down on online habits through a digital diet. Assistant superintendent Sylvia Russell said the school district has begun to hit 100-per-cent utilization rates. As a result, the computer network needs an overhaul to meet ever-increasing demands. “We think there’s an unavoidable investment that the board is going to have to contemplate this year. That’s never good news, especially in times of shrinking budgets,” Russell told the board last week. “But we’re hoping that by giving you enough lead time on this, that we can come up with some creative ways to deal with this issue. It is expensive; there is no doubt.” Information services manager Brian Kuhn said schools need to cut back on using digital resources for non-educational purposes.
