You might not guess that one of the most innovative school districts in the United States is found in a quiet Arizona community, but Vail School District has paved the way for most of the nation's schools who are looking to integrate technology into the classroom.
Vail School District is way ahead of the national curve for technology adoption. The District is now on its fourth generation of wireless infrastructure and first deployed Wi-Fi in 2001. Every school in the district has been a 1:1 student to device environment for over 10 years. Almost five years ago, the District installed Wi-Fi on school buses so students could work while in transit. The New York Times covered the technology innovations at the District and word got out all around the globe. There is no exception a small school district in Arizona has set a high standard.
As the District added 15 schools in 12 years, it took a hard look at its existing Cisco network and knew it needed to move to a controller-less solution. The District chose Aerohive, reducing capital expenses and easily allowing the District to scale and grow.
