Trusted Partner to Districts.

ATLANTA PUBLIC SCHOOLS, GEORGIA

Founded in 1882, Atlanta Public Schools is one of the largest public school districts in the nation, with approximately 52,000  students, 90 schools (including partner and charter), and a staff of 3800. Femi Aina, Executive Director of IT, leads a team of 180 technicians. He turned to Lexicon and the AlwaysLearning solution to help ease the burden on his team for deployment, servicing, spare pool devices, and warranty of one-to-one devices. In August of 2021, Lexicon deployed 37,711 devices for APS, with an additional 14,000 devices deployed later, and service and maintenance for 40,000 devices. Find out why, without Lexicon, Mr. Aina estimates he would have had to hire at least a dozen additional people.

BONUS

Lexicon’s technical and testing expertise proved invaluable to Fayette County when the unexpected occurred. During the school’s benchmark testing period, touch screens began behaving erratically, clicking on items at random without user input. Fayette County’s initial fears – that they had been hacked – were relieved when Lexicon’s engineering team discovered a defect in the construction of the touch screen that was causing the behavior. See the results!

Henry County School System (HCSS) serves 50 schools with an enrollment of 42,600 students and a faculty of 2,657. Lexicon has helped them deploy hundreds of new technology assets and better manage their existing multitude of assets with a single source for warranty and repair. Lexicon manages beginning-of-year deployment, end-of-year asset collection, and secure offsite summer storage. Through the AlwaysLearning®️ Spare Pool program, Lexicon has ensured that students spend more time in class learning and less time waiting on their devices to be repaired. By capturing and providing detailed analytics, Lexicon was able to help HSCC monitor asset utilization by school and better allocate spare pool resources throughout the district. We were also able to identify, by school and by device, where and why most damages were occurring. This allowed for student training to cut down on device damage, saving HSCC money and improving the student experience.
