Horseheads Technology

 

 

Please click here to submit a technology support request.

 

Technology is a top priority in the Horseheads district. The district has more than 4,500 networked and stand-alone computers, as well as scanners, interactive white boards and panels, projectors, digital cameras, handheld computers, tablets, and more. Interactive boards and panels are in the majority of the district's classrooms.

We have a Multi-Media Center in the south wing of Horseheads High School and a Large Group Instruction Room (LGI) at the Middle School. These rooms house technology to support distance learning and virtual learning experiences, large meetings, and other multi-media presentations.

A District Technology Committee has developed technology benchmarks for each grade level. The committee has developed a multi-year technology plan that guides our efforts to provide appropriate technology to students and staff. This plan is designed to support the mission and beliefs of our district while recognizing our current and projected environment.

You may view the district technology plan by clicking here.

Please note: The district has an Acceptable Use Policy for students and staff. Parents are encouraged to read the policy in order to be informed on what the district requires of students when using district computers. To view the Acceptable Use Policy, click here.
