I am passing along information we received about discounted internet service. Since the school district participates in the Community Eligibility Provision (free breakfast/lunch for all), all of our families qualify for this discount program if you use one of the participating providers for home internet. It appears to me that the easiest way to apply is to contact your provider, however there is an online process as well.
