NECSD Faculty and Staff
This system will simplify the process of entering a help desk ticket, streamline work orders for our technicians, and allow the Division of Technology and Information to provide faster, more consistent service. The improved reporting features will also allow for better reporting to the district on help desk tickets and to more efficiently allocate resources and training. NECSD employees, please reference our Mojo Helpdesk quickstart guide.
Building Tech Issue Reporting
The procedure for reporting technical issues within a building is as follows: All technology issues should be reported using Mojo Helpdesk. Mojo helpdesk is also accessible via the Launchpad and the "waffle", upon login to a NECSD Google account. A ticket will automatically be created and forwarded to the appropriate technician for resolution. A follow-up email from the system will be sent to the person reporting the issue. New users, please reference our Mojo Helpdesk quickstart guide.
Smart Schools Bond Act
The Smart Schools Bond Act was passed in the 2014-15 Enacted Budget and approved by the voters in a statewide referendum held during the 2014 General Election on Tuesday, November 4, 2014. The Smart Schools Bond Act (SSBA) authorized the issuance of $2 billion of general obligation bonds to finance improved educational technology and infrastructure to improve learning and opportunity for students throughout the State. The SSBA requires that a Review Board review and approve districts’ Smart Schools Investment Plans before any funds may be made available for the program.
