Monroe Township Public Schools to Reopen Friday After Internet Troubles by ‘Unauthorized Third Party’

MONROE TWP., New Jersey (WPVI) — Public schools in Monroe Township will reopen on Friday after a district-wide internet outage canceled classes for three days.

Notifications were sent to families this week stating that there was a technical issue that resulted in the school’s internet service being disconnected.

An email Thursday evening said the school was able to “restore internet access and operations.”

District officials said the technical issues were caused by an unauthorized third party.

“As our investigation continues and when we learn more about this incident, we will provide a further statement to the MTPS community,” officials said.
