Keep your macOS up to date for the most reliable application functionality.
Older versions of macOS, such as Montery, Mojave, Big Sur, and Catalina are identified as the likely cause of various application issues such as ‘glitchy’ or blinking screens, inability to install the PaperCut extension (this makes your building’s printers available), and other odd or intermittent issues.

Tech tip! Set a reminder on your calendar to check for updates monthly!
Important for computers that will no longer update:
As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a secure and efficient digital environment, we need to address an important issue regarding outdated computers. Devices that are unable to receive the latest operating system (OS) updates pose a security risk to our network and the entire district’s technology infrastructure.
Over time, any computer that cannot be updated to the most recent OS version will need to be removed or replaced. This is necessary to ensure that all devices meet the required security standards and protect sensitive information.
If you believe you have a device that is no longer capable of receiving OS updates, please submit a Technology Service Request (TSR) as soon as possible. Our IT team will assist in evaluating the device and determining the best course of action.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our systems secure.
