School Bus WiFi: A Cost-Effective Way to Bridge the Homework Gap
Students without internet at home face additional barriers to completing their homework, have lower graduation rates, and score lower on standardized tests when compared to their well-connected peers – even before the pandemic. School bus wifi helps bridge that digital divide.
Around 30 percent of all U.S. students do not have adequate internet at home – causing an internet gap the moment they leave the classroom. Our wifi-equipped buses fill the homework gap for dozens of students at a time.

This student-centric decision extends the classroom and helps to bridge the digital divide for those students who might need internet connectivity while traveling to and from school, to sporting events, and on field trips.
