Starting in 2015, Boone High School students received chromebooks as part of the one to one initiative. With so many technology devices, there are bound to be issues and possible breakdowns with the chromebooks. To assist students with their devices, a team of high school students was formed to help other students with their technology issues.

This Toreador Tech Team, also known as T3PO, have a class period in which they learn different troubleshooting techniques to help students get their own chromebook up and running fast and effective. This prepares them to assist students when problems arise.

The team consists of 17 students in grades 9-12. The team replaces screens, makes instructions, updates a website that includes instructions, the team members’ blogs, tips, tricks, and videos. The Toreador Tech team’s number one priority is helping other students that need assistance.

Team leader, Dana Hanna, says, "The students are eager to learn and to help others. They have done a great job of finding the proper solution for [problems] or continuing to search until they have a solution. They have been a joy to work with and I think a wonderful addition to the HS, especially with the one-to-one this year.”  

“I like how it gives me new opportunities with technology, and that I can help others and myself.” said team member, sophomore Levi Patterson.

Sophomore Mackenzie Parrish has received assistance from members of the tech team. She said, “Everyone was very nice and treated me well. They all were understanding and I got it back by the end of the period both times I had problem. “

The Toreador Tech Team is available every hour of the day. If you are in need of help you can stop by Mrs. Hanna’s office which is located on the west side of the Center of Collaboration and Innovation.
