Durham District School Board (DDSB) yesterday announced that DDSB@Home Elementary and Secondary virtual classes start from today.
They have been offline since the cyber attack on the board’s systems on Friday.
“Our IT Services team continues to work to restore all services to support student learning. DDSB@Home Elementary and Secondary are now able to hold virtual classes as normal. Students should log into their Google Classrooms at the start of the school day on Thursday, December 1. There may be a very small number of classes that cannot take place but independent work would be posted in those classrooms for students to complete,” said a DDSB update.
Although Chromebooks are now able to be used at home, DDSB said it is unable to provide any support to repair or troubleshoot Chromebook issues at this time.
“We recognize how disruptive the last few days have been and thank everyone for their patience as we work through this matter. We are looking forward to welcoming students back into their virtual classrooms tomorrow. We will be providing further updates in the coming days when we have new information to share,” said the update.
