this is dumb, mainly because any decent security software can detect key logging. Shame on the IT "professionals" running that place. All to common in schools from my experience.

Most of the people doing tech in school systems have no idea what they are doing. It's a pretty sweet job where you can literally google any questions you get and pass that along and you're considered a tech wiz.
Trouble shooting printers, drivers, maybe you handle Ipads. Very basic server administration. You have some people at the district offices who know what they are doing. But the people actually on site at schools. Those are jobs given to cousins of HR managers or School board members wives or brothers. And in my very low cost of living rural county those jobs pay 28k a year, 12 sick days, 12 vacay days, board match for insurance retirement. Probably looking at least 35k a year when totaling up all the benefits/salary. Not bad at all for a CAKE job.
I remember one teachers computer was running slow. she has installed a shit ton of application that ran on start up. Not to mention her virtual memory was set incredibly low. The tech guy couldn't figure out what was wrong. I just upped her virtual memory (to what it should have been in the first place) which made it vastly better but i told her she needed to download a program to manage what apps opened on startup and what ones didn't. Fucking tech didn't even know what CCleaner was nor did he even know how to set virtual memory on a hard drive.
