Ahh yes, what can go wrong with technology ? How many solar panels does it take to generate the power for just these lights ? ;)

The lights have been on at a Massachusetts school for over a year because no one can turn them off

Blame it on the pandemic and "supply chain problems," says the school district's assistant superintendent of finance.

The lights have been on at a Massachusetts school for over a year because no one can turn them off

WILBRAHAM, Mass. — For nearly a year and a half, a Massachusetts high school has been lit up around the clock because the district can’t turn off the roughly 7,000 lights in the sprawling building.

I don't understand what it has to do with the school district's assistant superintendent of finance.

The local caretaker or whatever they call them there, goes into the plant room, opens the electrical distribution box and flips the appropriate circuit breakers which should be labelled.

That would do for vacations etc. and until the presumably remote switching issue can be bypassed more conveniently.
