With servers still offline, Hudson County Schools of Technology goes old-school low tech

“The Hudson County Schools of Technology (HCST) took a trip back in time to the 1980s for a second straight day Tuesday. The internal computer servers at the district, which includes High Tech High School in Secaucus and County Prep and Explore Middle School in Jersey City, remained offline, leading to a second straight half-day of classes for students.“

““The district currently has IT professionals evaluating the situation to determine the cause of the outage and expect the network to be back up shortly,” said Daren Hover, a spokeswoman for the district. “The district instituted an early dismissal for students (Monday) and (Tuesday) so that teachers and staff have time to alter their lesson plans to accommodate the outage.”“

“In an email Tuesday afternoon, Superintendent Amy Lin-Rodriguez told students and parents the schools would return to a full-day schedule Wednesday, even though they did not expect the “network repairs” to be completed Wednesday. “The disconnect of our technological resources have been a means for us to adapt and connect directly with our students,”“
