Fayette County teachers with faulty faucets or wonky Wi-Fi will soon have a more efficient system of placing work orders for classroom repairs.

Assistant Superintendent Mike Sanders outlined a new online platform Monday at the Board of Education’s work session. Developed by the same company the county uses for its financial records, the new work order system will let teachers specify whether they need help with technology- or facility-related problems and then track each order’s status and completion.

The goal is to improve timeliness and to keep requests, which previously were made verbally or in a note, from falling through the cracks.
