Technology & Information Services

Technology & Information Systems is responsible for the effective integration of technology used to promote the instructional and administrative processes that engage students and accelerate learning and operational activities.

With the help of a talented IT team, we support:

  • Infrastructure - firewalls, web filters, servers, wireless access points, and VOIP telephones

  • Hardware - laptops, desktops, Chromebooks, iPads and other instructional hardware

  • Software - Infinite Campus, Destiny, and other school-based software

The Technology Department is committed to providing great customer service, support, and solutions. Our mission is to improve student success, eliminate achievement gaps, and produce technically competent graduates able to compete in a global workforce. From providing teachers and students access to the digital tools they need for instruction, to ensuring that parents have access to up to date information on student progress, to support our business users, to protecting PCSD’s network from cyber-attacks, it is the goal of Technology Services to support all of the District’s information technology needs.

Infinite Campus Logo

Infinite Campus is the student information management system the PCSD uses to collect, maintain and report student information data for mandated state and federal data collections. We provide training and support for school and district personnel on this application.

The Infinite Campus Portal is used by parents and students to see current grade book information on their assignments, average grades, and attendance.

Canvas Logo

Canvas is our Instructure Learning Platform that helps make learning personal through software, content, assessment tools, professional development, partner technologies, and a million-member-strong user community. Instructure solutions amplify the power of teaching and elevate the learning process, leading ultimately to improved learning outcomes.

Parent/Guardian Login

Parents/Guardians, we encourage you to create your own Parent Account and pair your account with your student(s). Once you pair with your student(s), your accounts will be paired for the remainder of their time as a PCSD student. You will not need to do this each school year. Please note, each student will generate a seperate code, therefore you will have to pair separately for each student.

Once you are paired, you will be able to see grades, due dates, and feedback associated with assignments and assessments. You can customize notifications based on your preferences and be notified when assignments are turned in, a reminder on due dates, as well as when a grade is received.
