Top 10 National Superintendent Tech-Savvy Awards: Each year, e-School News awards the nation's top ten most successful K-12 executives for their outstanding ed-tech leadership, vision and for taking their schools into the 21st century. This year, a Superintendent from a Schoolwires district was honored with one of the ten national awards.

  • Superintendent Steven Stephanoff, Center Grove Community School District, Indiana, Stephanoff understands how technology
    can improve school administration as well as enhance student learning. After only a year and a half of his leadership at Center Grove, technology has become an integral part of the district. Center Grove has launched a district-wide data warehouse so that teachers and administrators have full access to common assessments and student data to make informed instructional decisions. Under Stephanoff's direction, the district also
    has implemented a streamlined, shared student and business/financial data system with a single database for both operations.

    In December, a teacher from Center Grove Middle School North was named Indiana Computer Educators' "Technology Teacher
    of the Year." The award was a reflection of the environment that Stephanoff has created, which encourages teachers to explore new technologies and provides cutting-edge tools for them
    to utilize.

    Stephanoff also supported the launch of a new district website, which has role-based management, allowing students and teachers to log in for targeted information. Leading up to the
    2008 elections, students participated in a mock electronic
    election via the new web site's secured electronic survey feature.
