Overview

Set your educational IT for long-term success

Whether it’s the rise of digital curriculum or the need to stay nimble no matter what the world throws at you, we help schools get ahead and stay ahead

Always-On Connectivity

Keep your network running no matter what

One of the first things you’ll notice when you connect your school with FirstLight is our ultra-low latency connectivity and superior Internet solutions that offer best-in-class peering and direct connections to the majority of available content. That and our highly redundant, scalable architecture that keeps your network running, no matter what.

Collaboration and Meetings

Make your distance learning strategy go the distance

Virtual learning requires more than skilled teachers and colorful Zoom backgrounds. In order for your distance learning strategy to succeed, you also need real-time collaboration, voice, video, and meeting tools. As a Cisco Premier partner, we can help install, maintain, and optimize best-of-breed Cisco solutions that make your distance learning programs run smoothly and successfully.

Content Filtering

Don’t let inappropriate content interfere
with online learning

Botnets, pornography, hate-speech, spyware… Some things just don’t belong in schools, whether in-person or virtual. Our CIPA-compliant FilteredNet is a content filtering firewall unique to schools that lets you filter any lewd, hateful, or violent material out of K-12 learning curriculums – while ensuring that child-appropriate material flows through normally.

Protect Against Ransomware

Your school’s data isn’t up for ransom. We help ensure that.

Don’t let ransomware or malware impact your school operations. We offer cloud-based data backup solutions that ensure your data remains intact if ransomware manages to strike your school.

We also provide disaster recovery services that minimize any downtime your school’s IT infrastructure might experience if it gets hit with bugs and bots.
