“I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Jeff Day since July 2021 when I hired him as our technology consultant at my prior school. I was impressed by the fact that Jeff had served as IT Director in other independent schools and would understand the unique needs and challenges of technology in education. When I met Jeff, I knew immediately he would be a good fit for our school because of his open and friendly personality, his clear knowledge of all aspects of technology, and his unique background as a consultant, teacher and independent school administrator. Jeff has the uncommon ability among technology staff to speak in a way people understand.
In a short span of time, Jeff completely revamped our device inventory model, and developed a predictable budget and consistent replacement schedule. Thanks to his strong background in school security tools, he also installed cameras in all of the school’s buildings and integrated them with the remote door hardware. He worked to reconfigure the network and expand and improve the wireless across campus. In addition, he built the school’s makerspace by hand. Even more importantly, Jeff quickly developed strong relationships with all members of the school community.
After starting at a new school in December of 2022, I learned we had a vacant position for the Director of Technology. I knew Jeff would and his new company, Better Days Technology, would serve all the school’s strategic technology needs, and save us money. So we hired Jeff and Better Days as our technology consultant, and eliminated the Director of Technology position. I am very happy to have the opportunity to work with Jeff again and I recommend his company to anyone looking for an affordable and strategic IT solution.”
