The Portsmouth School Committee last night chose five community members for its technology subcommittee, according to meeting highlights posted on the district web site.

The new members of the subcommittee, which will advise the district on technology issues, are Brenda Langlais, Linnea Wolf, Robert Hewett, and Jeff Swider, with auxiliary member Roy Huck.

According to the posted highlights, "The School Committee has reopened applications for the Technology Subcommittee, as additional members are needed. Applications should be sent to Patti Cofield, cofieldp@portsmouthschoolsri.org by March 13."

The School Committee has assembled a well-credentialed panel, and I wish them them all the best as they help guide our schools through this important transitional period.

Full disclosure: I submitted the required materials to be considered for this subcommittee in December.
