Technology has the power to transform learning, engage students and increase operational efficiency. We partner with district leaders to ensure that our hardware standards include tools and resources that support the diverse and rapidly changing needs of our schools and business units.

Standards are necessary to ensure that resources and services are stable, reliable and accessible throughout the district, and that they are adequately supported by manufacturers through their service life with the district. For these reasons, SCUSD cannot allow the purchase of equipment or resources that has not been approved. This includes donations and acquisitions of surplus from external organizations and agencies.

We are grateful for your partnership in ensuring that our district computing environment is secure, reliable and effective.
