I hadn't thought of this...

When the hurricanes hit the gulf coast recently one thing we all were aware of was how people had to relocate to other school systems. For some reason it had not occurred to me the condition that those gulf coast school system SISs were in (Student Information System---in the educational IT world that can be a "dirty word." I'm only joking.) I can't imagine the effect there would be on losing data like that. I found a blog today that commented on this very topic. This was posted a few months ago, but I am glad to know that the state systems were able to help out these local systems in disaster recovery of data. Wow!
