real life,” says Moyer. While shifting the system takes time, the district is making strides to integrate these critical skills into its offerings, ensuring students are equipped to meet the demands of an ever-changing world. TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION AND FUTUREFOCUSED TEACHING In an age of rapid technological advancements, Northport-East Northport Union Free School District ensures that its classrooms anticipate the future students will enter. “We are a one-on-one district with Chromebooks and have Promethean boards in every classroom,” says Moyer. “But technology isn’t just about the tools—it’s about how we use them.” The district has introduced an in-house professional development system that allows teachers to earn credits while focusing on critical topics like technology integration. Northport High School Interact Club members discuss their thoughts on important leadership qualities with Northport-East Northport Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Dave Moyer. 7 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 06, ISSUE 02 NORTHPORT-EAST NORTHPORT UNION FREE SCHOOL DISTRICT
