Information Services
Welcome to the Information Services Department
The Information Services Department (ISD) is committed to assist with implementing the district's mission and vision as defined in the Roadmap to Educational Excellence. Technology is used throughout the district to support student learning activities, professional growth, and productivity in an engaged, educationally focused environment. We believe that technology can be a powerful tool to transform the learning process when it is used effectively in the classroom.
The IS Department provides connectivity and services to approximately 20,000 devices in 22 schools, the district administration office, and two auxiliary buildings. Network and Internet access is centrally distributed from the district's data center over a fiber WAN. The IS Department also supports all software applications throughout the district, including student information systems, financial and human resources systems, curriculum and educational software applications, e-mail, iPad apps, database development, on-site hosting of our district, school, and teacher websites and many other daily tasks that keep the technology resources of the district functioning.
