Is Your IT Supporting—or Slowing—Learning?

Schools need IT that keeps up with the demands of modern education. When technology fails, learning stops. Here's what we hear from schools before they partner with GXA.

Aging Infrastructure Slowing Learning

Outdated networks, slow devices, and legacy systems frustrate teachers and students. Technology should accelerate learning, not hold it back.

  • Network slowdowns during peak usage periods
  • Devices that take minutes to boot up
  • Outdated hardware struggling with modern software
  • WiFi dead zones in classrooms and common areas
  • Systems that crash during critical testing windows

Student Device Management at Scale

1:1 programs are essential, but managing hundreds or thousands of devices is overwhelming. Deployment, updates, repairs, and tracking consume IT resources.

  • Chromebook and iPad fleets need consistent management
  • Device repairs and replacements create bottlenecks
  • Software updates across thousands of devices
  • Lost and damaged devices need tracking
  • Summer refresh cycles are time-intensive

Disconnected Systems Creating Manual Work

Your SIS, LMS, and productivity tools don't talk to each other. Staff spend hours on manual data entry that should be automated.

  • Student information entered multiple times
  • Roster syncing between SIS and Google/Microsoft
  • Gradebook data not flowing to parent portals
  • No single source of truth for student data
  • Integration failures during critical periods

Supporting Remote & Hybrid Learning

Whether it's snow days, extended absences, or hybrid models—you need technology that works seamlessly from anywhere.

  • Video conferencing quality varies by location
  • Remote access to classroom resources is inconsistent
  • Home connectivity issues affect student participation
  • Teachers need reliable tools for remote instruction
  • FERPA-compliant collaboration for distributed learning
