Over 1 in 5 of the nation’s smallest schools lacked access to high-speed broadband in 2021 according to the FCC. This inequity was underscored throughout the COVID-19 pandemic where virtual learning may have been challenging or impossible. The National Rural Education Association and AIRSS as a state affiliate, in partnership with Rural Schools Collaborative, invite you to join a two-week rural broadband advocacy campaign.
We are sharing a toolkit with you including live links to tweet out images and information regarding rural access to high-speed broadband. Join in on the campaign to raise awareness (August 1-14).
