Technology Department 

The Technology team is a highly engaged workforce that has a sense of responsibility to the students, the district staff, the community, and other stakeholders. We strive for greatness at every opportunity. The key factor that motivates the Technology team to accomplish our mission is clear performance expectations. These are observable behaviors and actions that explain how the job is to be done, plus the results that are expected for performance excellence. These expectations are communicated in S.M.A.R.T. goals, which are specific, measurable, agreed upon, realistic, and time-based. There are many other factors such as working with our nation’s assets—our children—our future, having access to the latest and greatest technology, as well as 100% accountability for all work performed. On May 12, 2022, CoSN awarded the Trusted Learning Environment (TLE) Seal to GCCISD. The TLE Seal is a prestigious national distinction that school districts earn for demonstrating a commitment to protecting student data through modern, rigorous policies and practices. 

Our core competencies are the personal attributes and underlining characteristics, combined with technical skills that enable performance excellence. These competencies are consistent throughout the organization as types of behaviors that we wish to promote and develop. Our competencies are the foundation of our mission. With over 519 years of technology experience and the average tenure being 13.5 years per employee in the department, we deliver superior technology resources. The department is recognized as a level 5 organization for superior service, the highest award given in the State.

Performance Excellence

Technology Performance Scorecard is a performance management system that focuses on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).KPIs define and measure progress toward goals. KPIs are quantifiable measurements, agreed to beforehand with set targets, that reflect critical success factors for the department. The scorecard provides an analysis capability designed to translate our mission and overall organizational strategy into specific, quantifiable measures. It is a tool to monitor our performance each week in terms of achieving our goals. The advantage of the scorecard is that it aligns all staff members around common goals and strategies, building commitment and increasing accountability.
