Reach Remarkable Student Success on Budget with New Advanced Wireless

Every child must have access to high-quality public education. And, for today’s digitally minded students and staff, that means access to technology. Cutting-edge wireless networking solutions are available to primary and elementary schools in the US with the help of E-Rate. Using them, you can build a network that brings a next-generation educational experience within budget.

As edtech weaves its way into everyday curriculum and the digital culture is reflected in how students learn and educators teach, it’s become mandatory to make sure the school network is getting top grades. And yet these things cost precious dollars – dollars that are dwindling for today’s schools. It’s one thing to know what’s needed and a whole other to have the budget and funds to invest and grow.

Doing More with Less

Amy Sterckx, Executive Director of Technology and Information at Green Bay Area Public Schools (GBAPS) in Wisconsin, says school districts are constantly challenged with doing more with less. The ever-increasing list of connected devices plus demand of online programs are making more work for both IT and educational staff. And schools can no longer afford downtime or the risk of falling behind technologically.

It’s a conundrum felt across the globe, and one that all agree needs to be addressed. Children need a quality education and, for today’s students, that involves technology. Each global region has programs and initiatives to help fund the cost for updating school networks. In the United States, it’s E-Rate.
