Executive Perspectives
Annette Harris, Assistant Director of Infrastructure Services, Jefferson County Public Schools
"We are one of the largest school districts in the U.S. and received the fifth-largest grant from the E-Rate program last year. JCPS is a leader when it comes to embracing technology-driven initiatives, and with up to 200,000 users at any given time we need reliable, scalable network solutions. Because of E-Rate eligible solutions like those from Extreme, we can invest in enterprise-class, state-of-the-art technology without monopolizing the district's budget, making continued innovation possible."

Extreme's industry leading cloud-driven networking solutions offer the end-to-end reliability, scalability, security, and intelligence required for today's education networks. With our innovative technology, K-12 schools and libraries nationwide can leverage the E-Rate program to fearlessly embrace new initiatives and flexibly manage their network."
