At a Sept. 17 workshop, Scarborough Public Schools staff outlined a three-part process — shared understanding (fall), evidence review (winter) and vision development (spring) — to craft a district vision for educational technology, and tied the work to a short-turnaround statewide study.

IT staff proposed a differentiated student‑device model and a five‑year refresh commitment of about $4.6 million per year to stabilize repairs, warranties and instructional displays; the board voted to table the item and refer it to a future work session for more detailed scenarios and budget tradeoffs.
