At 8:48am EST, our assessment partner reported issues that impacted our ability to deliver assignments and view assignment reports. They have since resolved this issue. However, there were extenuating impacts on bigideasmath.com that require restoring assessment data from an earlier backup. This will take some time due to the volume of data to be restored. Until then, most assignment features remain unavailable. Once this data is restored, all data should be recovered successfully. We will continue to keep you updated until restoration is complete. We appreciate your continued patience.

Current and historical assignments should be available now. Additionally, new assignments are able to be made. We continue to work with our assessment partner to restore any outstanding data, especially If a student completed work on an assignment between 10:00-11:00 am EST on Monday, March 3rd. We will update you once all restoration efforts are complete.
