Some of the strongest teams aren't built in a boardroom—they're built on trust, shared values, and a little healthy competition.

In Episode 5 of our Three Pointers Series, Chris Hawkins talks with Secured Tech Co-Founder & CEO Nate Holmes to share the story behind how a group of pickup basketball players became the leadership team that built Secured Tech.

From leadership lessons and favorite books to why teamwork has always been at the heart of our culture, this special episode is a look at the relationships that shaped our company from day one.

Work anniversaries are a great reminder that it's the people behind the scenes who make everything we do possible.
Join us in celebrating Zach Ebeling on his 1-year anniversary (yesterday) and Susan Shafer on her 2-year anniversary (today)!

Zach spends his days making sure the numbers add up, while Susan makes sure the parts do too. 😊 We're incredibly thankful for the dedication, hard work, and positive attitudes they both bring to Secured Tech every day.

The best way to support K–12 schools is to keep learning from the people leading them. Last week, members of the Secured Tech team had the opportunity to visit the University of Wyoming and experience the incredible work happening through the Science Initiative Roadshow.

We were especially grateful to spend time with Ryan Gonzalez from Platte County School District #1, who serves as a mentor teacher for the program. Seeing how the Roadshow equips educators with hands-on STEM training and classroom resources was inspiring, as was meeting teachers from across the country—and even internationally—who came together to learn and collaborate.

Experiences like this help us better understand the evolving needs of K–12 education so we can continue being a stronger partner to the districts we serve.

Thank you to the University of Wyoming, the Science Initiative Roadshow team, Ryan Gonzalez, and Katie Mitchell for welcoming us and sharing your passion for education.
