IT Ops 2.0: Rebuilding the Systems That Power K-12 Technology
Dec 11, 2025
After years of reacting to tech demands, districts are stepping back to rethink how IT systems support long-term sustainability, security, and efficiency. This panel explores what high-functioning technology teams are doing to simplify their ecosystems, reduce risk, and position themselves for scale – without adding head count or complexity.
We’ll explore:
- What modern asset and infrastructure visibility should look like
- Strategies for reducing redundancy and operational noise
- How IT teams are simplifying tool stacks while increasing control
- The value of clear ownership and clean data across device life cycles
- Ways to drive accountability without manual oversight
You’ll leave with frameworks and takeaways that help you assess your current systems, identify areas of risk or inefficiency, and benchmark what high-performing IT operations look like in 2025.
