Introducing Connect K12
On this episode of Connected Nation, we talk with Emily Jordan, the Vice President of Connect K12, which is a FREE, online resource focused on helping school district leaders and state decision makers improve classroom and school network internet connectivity.
This is a critical need—amplified by the pandemic— as teachers and students rely on these networks to learn virtually and in the classroom. Learn how Connect K12 can help improve those connections, support for our state and school district leaders, and how YOU can leverage it to help improve your local school district's internet networks.
