Being a Title 1 school means some of our families face barriers in technology access, time and academic resources for students. As the technology teacher, director of technology and the PTA parent teacher liaison, I was in the middle of that gap where technology and family engagement were needed. We decided to use technology to help bring that vision to life and reconnect our school community in a meaningful way. I stopped by one table where a middle school student proudly presented phone cases she designed using digital technology tools. It was one of the first steps in rebuilding trust and connection between teachers, students and families after the pandemic.
