Technology Services at ESD 105!

Educational Technology Support Center

The Educational Technology Support Center program was re-established in 1993 by the HB 1209 legislation to support the use of educational technology in classrooms. There are nine E.T.S.C. Directors in Washington who work cooperatively to provide leadership in state-wide educational technology efforts in program planning, classroom integration, program assessment, research, grant writing and other related areas. We provide a liaison between school districts and OSPI and between educators and technology.
