Help desk, every school day
When something breaks mid‑class, your staff calls us instead of you. Teachers reach a real person by phone, email, or message all through the school year, and get clear updates until the problem is actually resolved.
IT for Education
Managed technology for K‑12 school districts
Frontier IT Consulting serves school districts across Alaska, with deep experience in rural districts on and off the road system — and a thorough understanding of the school environment: the technology, the instructional tools, the finances, and student safety.
Who does the work
Support that hires locally
We work alongside Remote Hands Alaska, which hires folks in rural communities to do the on-site work, and we back it with training and technology education for the staff who use the equipment every day. A district gets professional IT support, and the community gets jobs and training along with it.
Services
What a district gets
Devices for students and staff
Every student and teacher has a device that works. We configure, update, track, and coordinate repairs on what your district already owns — and say so when something is worn out.
Networks, classrooms, and building tech
Internet and Wi‑Fi in every classroom with the filtering student use requires, plus displays, projectors, sound, intercom and bells, door access, and cameras.
Accounts, email, and student data
Logins, email, shared files, and printing, in Google or Microsoft. We coordinate the technical side of your student information system and bring in trusted specialists.
Security and student privacy
We back up your files, block scam emails and outside attacks, and train your staff to spot trouble early. Student records stay protected the way the law requires.
Projects, planning, and E‑Rate
New buildings, phased device replacements, and district‑wide upgrades scheduled around your calendar, plus replacement planning and the E‑Rate paperwork.
How we work with districts
Built around the school year
-
We know schools, not just servers
A district is not a business. Tools have to fit how teachers actually teach, and we can speak to curriculum and the classroom tools already in use.
-
Technology has to earn its place in a classroom
No school budget has room for technology that exists for its own sake. If it does not help teaching or operations, we will say so.
-
We fit how your district is staffed
We can be the whole technology department, or back up the one or two people who already keep everything running.
-
We know the school year
Big work happens over breaks, and our planning follows your budget cycle, not the sales calendar.
