CIPA filtering. FERPA-aware controls. The 1:1 device fleet that comes back from summer ready for day one. Managed IT for the small district, private academy, or single-school office where the tech director is also the science teacher.
E-rate funding requires CIPA-compliant content filtering. The filtering working on the desktops doesn't always cover BYOD on the staff Wi-Fi or the iPads in the lower grades. The audit notices.
PowerSchool, Skyward, or Infinite Campus holds the FERPA record. Most schools we meet still have legacy local-admin access on every teacher laptop — one click away from a problem.
The Chromebook with the cracked screen is a math class with no math. A repair workflow plus spare-pool sizing keeps the classroom moving.
Vendor-banking-change emails targeting the business manager and the superintendent's executive assistant. A documented wire-change-confirmation rule is the cheapest single control on the list.
A small school or single-building district on our managed stack gets the same defense-in-depth we deploy at municipalities, with CIPA-aligned filtering on the wire and the Wi-Fi, FERPA-aware policies on every staff account, and a 1:1 device program that doesn't need the technology director to live in the help-desk queue.
Student information systems: PowerSchool, Skyward, Infinite Campus, FACTS SIS (private schools), RenWeb. Learning management: Google Workspace for Education, Microsoft 365 Education, Canvas, Schoology, Seesaw. Device management: Google Admin Console (Chromebook), Intune (Windows 1:1), and Jamf School (iPad). Content filtering: GoGuardian, Securly, Lightspeed, plus the NextDNS profile we layer for staff and out-of-classroom traffic.
Most schools we onboard arrive with a part-time tech director or contracted "computer person," a Chromebook fleet that's drifted out of policy, and a CIPA story that's verbal rather than documented. By day 90, the fleet is in policy compliance, the CIPA filtering covers every network surface, the FERPA controls have evidence files, the E-rate Form 470 / 471 cycle is on a calendar, and the help desk picks up when a teacher calls.
