Everything that was available on the website is available elsewhere on the main Education Department site, the official said. The Education Department worked to dispel those rumors by announcing on Twitter that the site was experiencing server problems, and that officials were working to restore it as quickly as possible. A department official said at the time that the server had been troubled by glitches since around Jan. 27. A department official told The Washington Post this week that the site was built a decade ago and has not been substantially updated since about 2011. A spokesman for AIR referred questions to the Education Department.
