The current reality….The current reality….
Bandwidth needs are doubling every year in schools with 1:1 and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs
E-rate funds not sufficient to meet the needs and provide equity across the country
$5.23 Billion requested, $2.7 Billion available – $2.79 Billion short fall
21.5% increase in requests over last year
District and school funding is not increasing and cuts in all areas are necessary.
