The Technology Department is the backbone of the modern educational experience at Paulsboro Public Schools. Our primary mission is to ensure that every student and staff member has seamless access to the innovative, reliable, and secure technological resources required to thrive in the 21st century. We are dedicated to maintaining an optimal digital environment that facilitates both exceptional teaching and transformative learning.

•  System Integrity: Overseeing all core infrastructure, servers, and cloud services to ensure data integrity, system uptime, and a reliable foundation for all digital tools.

We believe technology should be an accelerator for educational excellence. Our team actively supports the integration of new tools and resources that enhance pedagogical methods. We work closely with educators to:

Implement Learning Platforms: Manage and support the key learning management systems (LMS) and educational software that deliver dynamic content and facilitate communication.

Promote Digital Literacy: Provide resources and support that help both students and staff become proficient, responsible, and creative users of technology.

Ensure Security and Privacy: We strictly adhere to best practices and regulatory requirements to protect the private data of our students and staff, creating a safe and trustworthy digital learning space.

We strive to create an innovative environment for learning, teaching, and excelling—not just today, but for the future. Whether it's troubleshooting a connectivity issue in a remote classroom, setting up a state-of-the-art server for administrative efficiency, or deploying secure Wi-Fi at a sporting event, the Technology Department is committed to delivering responsive, expert support every day.
