Comcast

Comcast announced that it is partnering with the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) to launch a new program for schools throughout Washington state to connect low-income K-12 students to the internet at home, free of charge. Washington's K–12 Internet Access Program allows students and their families who previously didn't have internet access to connect to online learning from home. Internet Essentials is a Comcast program designed for low-income families and individuals to acquire access to the internet. The Comcast portion of the OSPI program will serve up to 38,000 qualifying low-income families with free internet service through the remainder of the 2020-2021 academic school year. Funding for the Washington's K–12 Internet Access Program comes from the federal CARES Act.
