NYC high school forced to go remote to house migrants

Fox Business’ Madison Alworth reports from Brooklyn, New York, to reveal the
reason why more than 4,000 students were forced to stay home from school.

IBM said it is working with New York City after officials blamed the company for
technical issues that prevented nearly a million students from accessing their
remote learning portal Tuesday morning after in-school classes were canceled due
to a snowstorm.

During a press conference Tuesday, New York City Public Schools Chancellor David
Banks expressed frustration over the widespread glitches and said the problems
were "completely tied to the work we do with IBM."

"IBM was the one who authenticates users and the usernames and, in a word, IBM
was not ready for prime time," Banks said.

‘GIVE THEM THE DAY OFF!’

Mayor Eric Adams said the snafu was a teachable moment for the city and that he
hoped it was a teachable moment for IBM, too, adding, "We expect more from our
partners and our vendors to give us the product that we're paying for, and today
they did not do that."

IBM acknowledged the problems in a statement on Tuesday, saying, "IBM has been
working closely with New York City schools to address this situation as quickly
as possible. The issues have been largely resolved, and we regret the
inconvenience to students and parents across the city."

The company sent FOX Business the same statement Wednesday morning when asked
for an update.

New York City's public schools resumed in-person learning on Wednesday. It is
unclear whether IBM has addressed the problems to prevent them from happening
again.

Banks said the city would conduct a full assessment of what caused the
technology issues. By the time of Tuesday's press conference, he said roughly
850,000 students had gained remote learning access.
