District 88 Technology - Software

District 88 attempts to provide the best IT user experience to staff, students, and the community. We strive to acquire or create the solutions that most closely fit the school's and the district's needs and requirements. In some cases, this may involve purchasing software from a third party vendor. In other cases this may involve adopting an open source solution, or creating a homegrown solution internally. When the District opts to create its own software internally, it places focus on usability, security, and interoperability. Below is a brief listing of some of the software that District 88 has created internally, some of which are available for download.
