Vista Norte’s 2026-27 plan continues a near-1:1 Chromebook and hotspot program to ensure all TK–12 independent study students, especially EL, LI, and foster youth, can access curriculum and virtual supports from home and learning centers. 3 allocates 156,814 for technology access and support, including devices, content-filtered connectivity, licenses, and tech support to keep equipment on a regular refresh cycle and aligned with online curriculum and assessment tools such as Google Classroom and NWEA. The school notes that technology investments have correlated with improved credit completion and are essential to their personalized learning and distance/hybrid model.While the plan doesn’t specify exact device or connectivity vendors, the ongoing refresh, hotspot provisioning, and licensing needs create an opportunity for IT hardware providers, mobile broadband/managed hotspot vendors, classroom platform providers, and support/monitoring solutions to propose cost-effective, education-compliant offerings.

Vista Norte serves a highly mobile, high-poverty student population across San Bernardino and Riverside counties, making reliable home connectivity and device management central; they also reference safety and content filtering as requirements.
