> Some teachers in our district are working with a contractor on an

and

> The site is being served by a company in another country. According to

> Okay. The issue is that whenever a group of students try to access the
site

> So the contractor is calling me and telling me there's a problem with our

> Now I need a reality check. Is there *anything* else that could cause an

such
