| Technology Committee |
Chairperson: Greg Bell
There is a fear out there that one has to be computer savvy in order to be on the Technology Committee. Our greatest expectation for members is a willingness to promote our technology needs to the community. Of course, we will not turn away any parent who has some technology knowledge. This committee has developed a technology plan for St. Kilian School and is in the process of setting and achieving goals toward that plan. According to the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, St. Kilian has the "Cadillac" of technology programs and long-term plans. This committee meets once per month and usually schedules some summer working meetings for updating the lab and cleaning computers. Since each classroom now has at least three computers, the work of this committee has an impact on every child in the school. |

It monitors and updates policies for the program, It oversees the coaching and the practices for the health, safety, and physical development of the children involved in the program.
