Who We Are
The Technology Department is responsible for maintaining computers in the schools, supporting the network infrastructure, hosting and assisting with the development of websites, maintaining email accounts, and much more.
To provide all of these services, we rely on the skills of our elite departmental staff, along with the support of exceptional volunteer School Technology Specialists in each school. The School Technology Specialists are teachers, librarians, administrators, and other folks who generously offer their time to provide on-site technical assistance and coordinate with the Technology Department for additional support. Thanks to their devoted efforts, the district is able to keep computer systems running with only a small team of full-time technicians.
