Midwest Connections

In the spring of 2006 when their former Internet service provider went out of business, students, faculty and staff in Central Heights Schools were left without access to broadband Internet service, an educational necessity. Online classes were halted and research tools were out of reach. At the behest of the district and acting quickly, Midwest Connections, Inc added equipment to a Franklin County emergency communications tower and was able to have Central Heights Schools back online, while also adding a new range of subscribers in Franklin County. Midwest Connections, Inc has installed and continues to maintain a 3 Meg connection to Kan-Ed's Internet 2 for IDL learning between schools.
