The Tahlequah Public Schools’ Technology Services department is involved in ‘everything technology’ throughout the district. We maintain email servicing, networking, software and hardware maintenance, phone, door access, security cameras, user management (passwords, etc) as well as manage Tahlequah Public Schools’ electronic communication outlets. As computing technology spreads into other areas, we are there to lend support.

We manage a host of software ranging from major companies such as Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Adobe to small third-party applications that specialize in particular subjects.
This includes all CPU’s, chromebooks, ipads, monitors, networked printers/copiers, and other peripheral devices. Contact Technology Services for product buying recommendations.
Tahlequah Public Schools supplies all students from Kindergarten through 12th grade with student devices. Currently, Kindergarten and first grade receive iPads with data plans through AT&T, and 2nd grade through 12 grade receive Chromebooks.
T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon hotspots are also available for checkout for students 2nd grade through 12th grade. This year, hotspots will initially be checked out to current students on the open house night (August 15th, 4:00-7:00 pm). They will be checked out in the media center by our technology staff until we run out. We will continue to take forms after we run out, and students will be placed on a waiting list. We will need this form (only the signature page) to be filled out and turned in before a hotspot can be checked out. We will also have printed copies on hand that evening.
We also offer a Student Device Protection Plan for $25 per device/per year. Details can be found here.
Tahlequah Public Schools uses Microsoft Office 365 for email services.
Third-party contractors are often used in maintaining the fiber optic network connecting the schools together. Computer Services may use contractors or in-house employees in maintaining the internal connections and networking hardware.

Free transportation in district-owned buses is furnished to students who reside in the district. All buses used by the Tahlequah Public Schools meet the requirements of the State Board of Education and operate in compliance with their regulations. All students are urged to regard the bus as a classroom as far as conduct is concerned. Safety is stressed at all times.
The driver of the bus is a school official and has the same authority as a classroom teacher over the students in his/her care. After a student gets on the bus, he/she is under the supervision of the bus driver and is expected to help him/her maintain discipline in order to prevent serious accidents. The driver has absolute authority and is expected to look after the welfare of all students under his/her care; any student may be removed from the bus that persists in disobeying regulations. After getting on the bus , no student is to depart from the bus until it reaches school in the morning or arrives at the designated place for him/her to leave the bus in the evening, except by special permission from the driver. A note signed and dated by the parents and principal will be necessary for permission to be given the student to disembark at another stop or to ride a different bus than normal.
