Funding Solutions
Helping Schools Do More With Less
Technology is essential — but funding it shouldn’t be a barrier. QNS helps public school districts identify, plan, and secure funding for their IT and infrastructure needs.
From E-Rate Category 2 to state safety and instructional grants, we work alongside your team to align projects with available funding sources, stretch your technology dollars, and ensure compliance every step of the way.
QNS solved all of our technology-related issues and problems for the Craig R-III school district. Our technology associate, Michael Taylor, and his behind-the-scenes team turned our district’s technological disadvantages into advantages. QNS provides immediate and responsive tech support, streamlined solutions to advanced problems/issues, and collaborates with future-oriented projects, especially those related to E-Rate monies.
The entire team at QNS takes the weight of technology off the district’s administrative team’s load. As a bonus, QNS provides this service at a fraction of the cost of its competitors. If you are a small school, you are wasting your time and money if you do not use QNS for all your technology needs.

Our partnership with Quality Network Solutions has had a significantly positive effect on the technological efficiency of our district. They have worked continuously to identify areas where improvement is needed and have been able to offer solutions and implement those changes. QNS responds to our requests quickly, resulting in minimal downtime. Our reliance on technology in education has increased dramatically over the past few years and we could not have navigated these changing times without them.
