As technology and curriculum are implemented in any area, staff is provided with the opportunity to attend a wide variety of courses custom designed to prepare staff to use the technology with their students. Each curriculum area is responsible for designing and delivering training to its staff. Elective courses also provide staff opportunities to further their skills. Elective courses are also provided for staff to further their professional skills. Plano ISD continues its strong commitment to provide adequate resources and a wide variety of options for professional development and support in a “client-centered” approach. To achieve the vision of a technologically literate staff, these wide varieties of opportunities have been made available. Courses for the beginning user as well as the advanced user are provided at a multitude of sites including Plano ISD’s Sockwell Center for Professional Development and home campus sites. The Plano ISD model for professional development satisfies the recommendations put forth on pages 26-27 of the State of Texas Long-Range Plan for Technology, 2006-2020. Learning in the Digital Age - Plano Independent School District Technology Plan 2013-2016 33
Assessment of Needed Telecommunications Services, Hardware, Software and Related Services Every computer in Plano ISD is connected to an internal campus network and every classroom has multiple connection outlets or wireless solutions for Internet access, application launching, file sharing and network printing. To access the Internet, all computers have software policies that direct them to the district proxy servers which contain required filtering software. All campuses are equipped with a core Ethernet backbone switch that connects the remote closets with the central distribution node (CDN) of the building. The CDN room receives the single mode fiber cable from the outside plant and terminates all internal multimode connections to the other fiber distribution nodes (FDN) of the campus. The computers connect via Ethernet (10/100/1000mbps) to a FDN/CDN closet. The switch stacks are connected via Gigabit Ethernet fiber connections to the local core switch. All servers and service devices connect to the local backbone switch. In the fall of 2001, the district constructed a network that connected all of the campuses together with over 81 miles of fiber optic cabling. In the summer of 2006, AT&T upgraded the network infrastructure to accommodate the increasing bandwidth needs for Plano ISD. The district also added a fifth core location that houses an internal datacenter to collapse district wide services onto a core location. The main core locations are Renner Middle School, Plano East Senior High, Administration Center, Service Center and the Spring Creek Center. The district has upgraded the core infrastructure from ATM to a 20G Ethernet ring. All high schools connect to their respective core locations over 10G Ethernet. All middle schools and elementary schools connect to the cores over Gigabit Ethernet. The network infrastructure was extended to the wireless space during the summer of 2009. All campuses have been equipped with WiFi. (802.11 a/g/n) The network operates on both 2.4Ghz and 5 Ghz frequencies. The laptops, netbooks, and various BYOD devices can connect with speeds up to 450Mbps. The district has implemented virtualization technologies and Storage Area Networks (SANs) to reduce the amount of physical servers needed to run applications. Also, the solution is used to replicate data for business continuity. Over the time span of the technology plan, the district will increase its use of virtualization technology which is approximately 75%. In 2010 the district implemented a new Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone system that runs on an open platform. The new phone system uses SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to communicate with the phones and the Telco. Faxing has been converted from stand-alone machines using POTS lines to electronic format via email and SIP.
