💻In today's world if the Internet is down, things grind to a halt! 💻
That is why we wanna give our BFA Technology Guy 👨🏻💻, Tommy Smathers a huge shout out for National IT Professionals Day!
He's a hard man to track down, because he's always fixing a cracked, screen, cleaning nacho cheese out of a keyboard, unjamming the copier, or resetting a password for the 400th time! ⌨️
But we found him today fixing the librarians computer, to snag this picture and tell a huge thank you for keeping our school up and running and making sure we have all the tools we need to make learning easier! 🙌
