Technology

Glendale School District's technology has been rapidly growing over the past eight years. With the direction of our new superintendent, Sean Gildea, as well as Eric Frank, and In-Shore Technologies, the school has acquired new changes such as:

  • Novell to Microsoft Migration

  • Visualizers and Projectors in every classroom

  • A Newline board in every classroom

  • New teacher notebooks

  • New curriculum-based software

  • Wireless network upgrade

  • 1:1 Chromebook for every student

  • Exchange to Google migration

  • New AutoCAD software

  • AS400 to Prosoft Migration

  • And many more!

The current network consists of 18 servers, all connected to a KVM for management. On the network side, each server runs to a Cisco switch that pushes a full 10 gigabit backbone to and from each device on the network. On the security side, we put a new FortiGate in place to help control incoming traffic, and a Smoothwall proxy blocks malicious websites and outgoing requests that are not permitted. The school district is also fitted with key fob-controlled entry on the door systems, and a range of 64 cameras that cover the school ground which records 24/7.
