Technology Survey for Local Educational Agencies

CSBA's last survey confirmed that schools are eager for resources to facilitate effective distance learning — particularly in terms of additional infrastructure, hardware and professional development.

This survey is designed to gather more detail about the depth of the need in various local educational agencies (LEA). Your responses will allow us to pursue partnerships with a range of telecommunication and technology companies that serve different parts of the state.

It is critical that we get localized information so we can match the resources to the specific needs in your community. We realize that you may not know the answers to the questions below exactly, but please try to respond as best you can based on your general knowledge of your students and staff. This is valuable and will help shape our advocacy on behalf of schools and students.
