Student tech support: Key in Ore.

More evidence that student techies are real assets to their schools: "The Silver Falls Technology Department supports all 14 schools in the district plus the administration department with only 2-1/2 full-time employees," according to the Silverton Appeal in Oregon. That simply would not be possible without the 16 high school and two Chemeketa Community College students in the "Technology Assistant" class that makes up most of that Tech Department. They're learning computer support, Web page support, video production and "eBay sales for the school district." They are also learning to be professionals at a young age and are treated as such.
