Kent School District’s annual Technology Expo showcases how students gain college and career skills through classroom projects using technology tools. This year’s event will be at the ShoWare Center from 6-8:30 p.m. on Jan. 14.

At the event, students and teachers will demonstrate technology in use, speak about what they have learned, and ask attendees to get involved. Attendees will have the opportunity to experience Kent School District technology integration by solving a problem, completing a task, or building a device with student presenters.

This event also highlights local businesses and organizations that support the use of technology in education. These business sponsors and exhibitors help demonstrate the connection between classrooms and careers.

Last year, the Technology Expo featured over 570 teachers, 37 businesses and 5,700 attendees.
