Technology Department

The Technology Department's mission is to support the technological needs of the District’s faculty, staff, and students.   In doing so, the department manages, maintains, and supports over 1,700 devices including laptops, desktops, projectors, interactive displays, VoIP phones, wireless access points, printers/copiers, servers, switches, cameras, and countless others.

Department Goals:

  • Provide excellent and timely support to our faculty, staff, and students
  • Ensure that our classrooms, teachers, and students are equipped with modern technology 
  • Embolden our teachers and students to innovate using technology, think critically, and purposefully
  • Support an educational culture where technology is a tool for learning – not an outcome
  • Encourage the use of technology for good
