Wawasee Operations logo with surrounding images of facilities, security, and school buses.Nearly every part of a student’s school day depends on Operations. Before students arrive, our buses are on the road, buildings are open and ready, technology systems are running, and kitchens are preparing meals. Behind the scenes, our teams also maintain facilities, support staff, manage infrastructure, coordinate safety and security, and plan the projects that keep our schools moving forward.

Wawasee Operations brings together Facilities, Technology, Transportation, and Food Services, along with districtwide responsibilities for construction, infrastructure, safety, security, and operational support. While each area has a different role, the goal is the same: provide safe, reliable, well-supported schools so our teachers and staff can focus on students.

Technology Status Pages

Wawasee Community School Corporation Technology Operations provides these links so parents and community members can quickly check the operational status of our essential digital learning platforms.

Why We Provide These Links - When students can't log into Clever, parents can't access grades in Skyward, or Google Classroom isn't working, these status pages help you determine if the issue is a district-wide service outage or something specific to your device. This transparency keeps our Wawasee community informed and reduces confusion during technology disruptions.
