Houston to Move District Technologically Forward

In the world of technology schools strive to be on the leading edge in attempts to be teaching the latest and greatest to the students.  Last May the Huron City Schools was in a position to hire a new Technology Director for the District.  Mr. TJ Houston was the chosen candidate for the position.

Houston comes to Huron with enthusiasm and excitement to move the District “technologically” forward all the while helping to maintain the “Excellent” rating.  Working with the students and helping them become lifelong learners is Houston’s goal.

Houston is extremely pleased to be a part of the Huron City Schools and the all “Mac” district. His responsibilities include everything from fixing down computers, integrating technology into the classrooms, manning the help desk, photographing special events, and developing tools for the teachers and students to enhance the lifelong learning concept.

“This is a very rewarding profession,” explained Houston.  “I have found my customer service experience has been very beneficial in helping the staff find solutions.”

Houston, a 2007 graduate of Black River Schools in Sullivan, Ohio earned his degree from Lorain County Community College.  His experience as a member of the Best Buy Geek Squad, a Network Administrator for Black River Local Schools and an Assistant Technology Coordinator for Firelands Local Schools has provided him with the knowledge and communication skills that will enhance his role as the Technology Director for the District.

Five years from now Houston foresees himself continuing to help others understand the ever changing world of technology.  “This is the best of both worlds.”

For Houston life has always been about having fun.  Magic tricks, juggling, making balloon animals and riding a unicycle were some of Houston’s favorite hobbies while growing up and in high school fencing was his sport.

Huron City Schools are pleased to welcome Mr. TJ Houston as their new Technology Director.
