We're fortunate to have dozens of Macintoshes at Miraloma, used by students for projects in the classrooms and by faculty and staff for their daily work.

The day-to-day administration and upkeep of the computers is provided by parent volunteers. This team operates on an as-needed basis and on certain projects in cooperation with the Web Committee and is always looking for computer savvy folks who can help with one or more of the following:

• basic configuration and troubleshooting of applications, particularly Firefox and Safari browsers and Microsoft Office applications,
• system configuration and troubleshooting; for example, network connectivity and printer configuration, and
• administration of the Mac OS X server supporting backups and other network-based services.

Specific projects we need help with include:

• setting up laptops with auction software on day of event
• soliciting donations of computer equipment
• recycling old equipment
• additional WiFi network setup
• school-wide software upgrades

All of this work can frequently be done outside of school hours.

Of course, we encourage parents to work with teachers on curriculum-specific technology projects as well.

Please contact tech@miralomasf.com if you're planning such projects or are interested in volunteering.
