School leaders often feel like they are in a technology trap
Educators repeatedly find themselves in one of two compromising positions: either stuck with old or inadequate technology that does not service their school well, or saddled with all kinds of new technology without a coherent plan for meaningful integration. In both cases, the school’s IT strategy is dictated by what it has, rather than what it needs. This way of operating sells schools short and does not result in the success your students deserve.
We understand investing in technology is time-consuming and expensive. It is even more costly when you spend money on the wrong technology, or purchase equipment with no clear connection to how it will help improve learning outcomes.
At Knowing Technologies we always start with strategy. We help you develop concrete, reachable goals that marry your instructional vision to technology clearly. Then, through monitored IT, continued consulting, and coaching services, we walk alongside you to be sure your whole school—from the server room to the classroom—has the tailored support it needs to thrive. Don’t require your students to settle for anything less.
“KT helped unify our staff. Some were reluctant to bring technology into instruction, concerned about an already overreliance on devices by students. Others lacked an understanding of the instructional innovation possible with tech in the classroom. KT brought together those hesitant to adapt with those ready to move, got us on common ground and moved us in the right direction.”

Head of School
Technology is the backbone of your school. We support that.
Knowing Technologies keeps your school’s tech effective and running smoothly. We do this in three ways. Our Consulting services help administrators develop effective, specific technology strategies that eliminate wasteful tech spend and align the school’s ambitions with the actual student experience. Our Strategy-Led Managed IT services build a solid foundation with data and systems infrastructure that are secure, reliable and right-sized for your school. And our Coaching provides the training needed to optimize how your educators use technology in their classrooms.
Instructional Strategy
Consulting
Students are growing up in a world where the ability to use technology is an essential part of their education. Schools need to be thoughtful and strategic about how to integrate technology into the classroom, what to invest in, and how to replace technology as it becomes obsolete (without exploding the budget). We help administrators develop technology plans that are aligned to the school’s mission and instructional goals.
