Yesterday I was informed 3 high school students were found outside of a school under a blanket. On a cold and rainy day in PHX, the students were attempting to get access to school’s WiFi to complete the assignments they had been given by their teachers. 1/ @PhoenixUnion
The principal found the students outside and gave them access to the school so they could complete their school work. This is our reality. This is the reality of millions of students living in poverty in urban and rural areas across the country given this crisis. 2/
Many kids can’t simply hunker down at home and cont to learn, bc they relied heavily on the tools we provided at school to succeed. Educators are stepping up to this challenge and getting creative about how to cont to provide quality instruction for all kids, but we need help. 3/
We need state and community support, let’s build innovative public and private partnerships to help us ensure our students don’t fall behind. /4
We can help them out with low cost internet access! Check out @Everyone_On partnership with @CoxComm for affordable internet!

People are assuming teachers have wifi... 
I for one, do not.
Hmmm. @dougducey I’m sure all the Brophy kids have access!! #failure to lead
As a GB member, you have the power with your other board members to provide tech to the students who need it and provide resources to low cost/free WiFi.
Phoenix needs to take advantage of any and all new FCC rules to do free internet.
