Everyone knows the Wi-Fi has been performing poorly at Hiawatha High School as of late; however, the majority of us do not know why. During the last two weeks, HHS students were told multiple times that the issues should be fixed, but then the Wi-Fi continued to go out. Other issues have included only teachers having Wi-Fi issues, certain rooms being disconnected while others aren’t, and the Wi-Fi going on and off within minutes over and over again. These outages have disrupted many classes, and have impacted students’ ability to get their work done. However, teachers were arguably affected the most by these Wi-Fi troubles, as the outages disrupted lesson plans, and hindered the ability to use e-passes and accept them.
