North Kansas City School District is one the largest school districts in Missouri and has been recognized by the National School Boards Association as a Technology Salute District. The District wanted to integrate student data across a variety of applications to provide a comprehensive look at each child's educational progress. Ensuring that student information is accurate and up-to-date was a constant challenge. North Kansas City School District wanted to automate key IT functions to remain cutting edge, without having to hire additional staff. With a Novell identity management solution and Novell ZENworks, the District created a more secure and manageable environment, while reducing administrative time.
