The district has received reports of issues with call quality (static) on our phone lines that are provided by Lumen, formerly known as CenturyLink.
Lumen will be doing work on our phone lines this afternoon at 3:30 pm.
This work will be "disruptive" and could lead to calls dropping or not going through for calls in and out of the district.
Internal phone calls from building to building, or within building will not be impacted.
Thanks in advance for your patience while we work with Lumen to resolve the issue.
