The Kent School District will host its annual Technology Exposition 6-9 p.m. Feb. 3 at the Kent ShoWare Center. The Tech Expo is an opportunity for Kent School District students and teachers to demonstrate how technology is used in their classrooms, alongside local businesses showcasing technology in careers. This partnership provides students and community members a chance to see how technology skills acquired today translate directly into future professions.

Each student and teacher presentation at the Expo integrates 21st century themes and/or skills into the teaching of core academic subjects in some format.

Last year, expo brought more than 4,000 people in attendance. Changes to this year’s expo include bigger aisles and more parking. This event is organized by the KSD and sponsored by The Boeing Company and other local businesses.
