Hello
I'm Charlie Reisinger, Chief Information Officer for Penn Manor School District and adjunct faculty at Millersville University's Lombardo College of Business, where I teach courses in cybersecurity and IT ethics and privacy.
I believe education is the most important human endeavor.
My work sits at the intersection of leadership, open source culture, and emerging technology. I've built programs that put students in real professional roles, guided major infrastructure projects, and helped educators think about technology, AI, data security, and privacy. I wrote about our district's open source journey in The Open Schoolhouse – a model for K-12 technology leadership that's been recognized internationally.
My focus is on the strategic questions that matter to school leadership: How do we build an equitable and innovative tech stack that empowers students and teachers? How do we protect sensitive student data in a hostile cyber landscape? How do we expand the digital programs needed to keep learning both authentic and forward-looking? How do we grow people and processes to maximize limited funding and staff? How do we prepare for a future being reshaped by AI and synthetic media?
