Well, CISCO, GOOGLE, ZOOM etc. using "tons" of balanced servers to fullfil their tasks with at least (and at minimum) gb connection each. But I've already got your point. It's quite impossible to get a school ready for online learning with inbound servers without a redundant fibre connection. A possible solution could be, that you place the meeting server into the internet (maybe a vps). Yes, they are not for free, but even they are not very expensive.
