| Abstract: |
This document provides information on how to leverage E-Rate data from Connect K-12 in policy conversations. E-Rate is the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) universal service program for schools and libraries, and national nonprofit Connected Nation has aggregated district, state and national E-Rate data in a free internet speed and pricing tool, Connect K-12. This pricing tool brings transparency to the internet procurement process and can provide districts with the information they need to secure low-cost, high-bandwidth services. |
