Internet Connected Devices Available For Remote Learning
by CrownHeights.info
Do you have enough computers for each of your children to connect to their school?
It’s a new dilemma that has rocked the Jewish communities of New York City, and an unexpected one.
To fill the need, Mayor Bill DeBlasio has pushed an initiative to give 300,000 internet connected devices to those who need to get their school children online.
“We want every student to take advantage of distance learning online learning,” DeBlasio said. “We are distributing now 300,000 ipads with the ability to get the coverage that people need with Wi-Fi, any student that doesen’t have the device can reach out via 311.”
Initial announcements of the initiative left private schools in a grey area, not necessarily allowing the those students access to the devices. Cuomo officially opened the initiative to all schhol children on Tuesday.
“No students should be deprived of online learning, if any family needs help all you gotta do is pickup the phone and call 311 and we will get that student plugged into online learning.”
To date, over 70 Jewish schools have been approved to get the devices, including Beth Rivkah in Crown Heights.
