If the mission of schools is to teach, learn, support, improve and help students achieve success, then providing a robust Wi-Fi network is a must. We live in a digital world where technology is advancing at a fast pace. The younger generation needs to be equipped and ready for the future. Every educational institution must be at the cutting edge of new development. Helping schools achieve a reliable and secure network is at the core of what Ruckus does.

Challenge

ビクター・セントラル・スクール・ディストリクト (VCSD) は、ニューヨーク州のロチェスターからおよそ 12 マイル離れた郊外にある学区です。The district serves 4,500 students from pre-K through 12th grade and 600 of staff. VCSD had an aging network designed to support teacher laptops, rather than 1:1 mobile learning in the hands of students with the implementation of Chromebooks. Ultimately, it became too difficult for teachers to instruct without a highly available, reliable network to support screen learning time in the classrooms. This led to frustrated students and a challenge for the IT department to manage.

David Henderson, IT director at VCSD states, “Our current wireless network was seven years old and just couldn’t keep up with the explosion of devices hitting the network. Putting in a future-proof, wireless network was key. During a 40-minute class, we would have up to six Chromebooks dropping off the Wi-Fi all the time. It was a pain to deal with and even our teacher’s laptops would have a difficult time staying on the wireless.”
