K-12 Education
Today’s students have never known a world without technology.
They learn differently, which demands new teaching methods and instant access to answers. By bringing technology into the classroom, students are engaged and prepared for a technology-driven future.
In addition to all of our Services & Solutions, we have services that are specific to the K-12 market.
1-to-1 Initiatives
1-to-1 computing in schools is quickly becoming an agreed upon necessity; the only real obstacles are those of logistics. Any school district can explain what benefits they expect from a 1-to-1 program, but the technical details and assessments on the road to these end goals are the real challenges.
We provide a fully realized, yet still flexible roadmap that includes:
- Assessments & Planning
- Financing & Funding
- Hardware & Software
- Training
- Curriculum Integration
- Professional Development
BYOD - Bring Your Own Device
As an addition to your 1-to-1 initiative or as a way for your teachers and students to access their information from anywhere, BYOD is becoming an increasingly popular alternative for school districts.
Stoneware is the first and only cloud-computing solution that is your desktop built in a browser. Students and teachers can securely access all of their IT resources – data, file directories, Windows, web and hosted applications – any time, from anywhere, using any machine or OS.

Windows MultiPoint Server
More students and teachers need access to technology to get ready to compete for 21st century jobs, but many schools don’t have sufficient budgets to buy the computers they need. Plus, finding money for ongoing maintenance and support can be a challenge.
With Windows MultiPoint Server, a single computer supports multiple users at the same time, each working independently using their own monitor, keyboard and mouse and with a familiar Windows computing experience. Schools can provide more students with access to the latest technology, even with limited budgets. Schools can effectively triple the number of Windows computers without increasing budget.
VoIP Telephony
Good communications are at the heart of a successful school. With Mitel, we offer educators the means to harness new communications technology and create new ways of learning, while improving collaboration between students, parents and the school.
IP Communications from Mitel provide schools with a more effective method of handling calls. Schools can be more adept at managing incoming calls at busy times of day while developing new ways of communicating after the school day is over.
