Customer Success Hernando County School District

Hernando County School District simplified device charging, cut costs, reduced IT labor, and kept student devices ready for learning.

The challenge. Over the years, charging solutions have been purchased under different administrations, resulting in a fragmented and inefficient setup for the district. One major obstacle was the labor-intensive process required to prepare charging carts. IT technicians were burdened with manually wiring AC adapters into each cart, consuming valuable time and resources. The district also struggled with frequent loss or theft of charging AC adapters, which rendered carts unusable and disrupted classroom readiness.

The solution. JAR Systems introduced the district to the Elevate USB-C Charging Carts and Open6 USB-C Charging Stations with Active Charge Power Banks, providing streamlined, plug-and-play solutions designed to eliminate the need for manual wiring, increase instructional time, and prevent equipment loss. Regarding quick deployment with the new solutions, Joseph Amato, Director of Technology and Information Services, explained, “We can take the carts directly from the truck, unpack them, and they go right into the classroom and are fully operational.”

Built-in Quick-Sense USB-C Charging Hubs eliminated the need for the IT team to wire carts and replace costly AC adapters. Plug-and-play deployment reduced IT setup time, allowing the charging solutions to move directly from delivery into classrooms, fully operational for teachers and students. Secure, overnight charging kept devices safe and ensured students started each day with fully charged technology.

“JAR Systems has the best customer service response I’ve ever received from any vendor in the 30 years I’ve been doing this.”
