Our newly formed Technical Services Team brings together Network Services, Systems Administration, and Technology Support to deliver secure, reliable technology that keeps our schools running smoothly and supports both classroom learning and daily operations.

The Network Services branch designs and maintains the backbone of IUSD's technology. Network Services staff are responsible for network availability and security. They support all network-related hardware and software, manage user accounts, wireless access, Email and Internet access. PC Services staff act as a bridge between our schools and our department. They are often the first point of contact for general technology issues and school site support. These dedicated individuals support a wide variety of technology equipment, software, and related systems.
