The FCPS Office of Technology has been advised by our internet service provider, the Kentucky Educational Technology System (KETS), that all FCPS Web sites and email delivery will be unavailable between 6 pm and 9 pm Eastern time on Wednesday, July 19, 2006. This planned outage is necessary to allow for the installation of new network hardware which should provide a more stable network core and internet usage experience, according to KETS.

The July 19 planned outage is phase two of three planned phases; the date of the final phase is not yet known. We will post information on the final planned outage as the information is made available to us.

For more information, please contact Mike Burke, FCPS Supervisor of Systems Support/Networking; or Damon Jackey, KETS Engineer (Damon.Jackey@education.ky.gov or (800) 884-1754, Ext. 286.
