The Connectivity Gap: Share Your Story
What is the K-12 connectivity gap?
According to a June 2020 report from Common Sense Media, 1,828,917 Texas students lack adequate high-speed connection (34%) and 1,229,459 lack devices (25%). These needs have prevented many students from participating in distance learning. As such, not all Texas public school students are receiving an equitable education while instruction moves online due to COVID-19.
