Which school subjects do you most look forward to teaching in-person again?

During #NationalTeachersWeek we also want to celebrate all of the school principals across the U.S. who are working hard so their students’ have access to education. 👏

In the face of adversity, #teachers across the nation remain committed to ensuring each student receives a quality education. We thank you for your continued dedication. #NationalTeachersDay #ThankATeacher

Prior to receiving her #1MPF device, this @AustinISD student traveled to the local @JackBox to gain access to WiFi. Not only can she now complete her assignments from the comfort of her own home, but she has also found joy in reading outside the classroom.

We asked teachers, students and parents to do something unprecedented — to take the nation’s largest school system, over a million kids, and convert to online learning within a matter of days. It has not been easy, but they took up the challenge. THANK YOU!

The #DigitalDivide is a worldwide issue crossing cultures, communities and borders. No child’s education should be disrupted due to situations beyond their control. nyti.ms/2RWeFhl

Sharing @1MillionProject Foundation with all. Powerful path of preparation for students.

#COVID19’s implications for education stretch far and wide – but they’re also felt right here at home. As the @1MillionProject expands to get devices in the hands of K-12 students, we’ll work together to make sure they can be connected to keep learning. #stream/0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">kcur.org/news/2020-03-1…

Remote learning doesn’t mean you need to put your dreams on hold. Juniors can use their #1MPF device to prepare for college and earn scholarships from @collegeboard. Scholarships are now open for class of #2021! cb.org/1MP

Remote learning can be a difficult transition for many districts, but it’s feedback like this that makes our efforts worth it. We’re so proud to have helped @AFUHSD216 ensure that students are able to continue their education from home.

I can’t begin to express my thanks to those who’ve helped narrow Chicago’s digital divide these past weeks. Our work is by no means done - but, with the generosity and support of @chipubschools teachers and staff, @chicagosmayor, @1MillionProject, we’re making amazing progress.

As remote learning becomes a necessity, we remain committed to supporting our partner districts. We're doubling our monthly data offering to 20 GBs to ensure that #1MPF students have the necessary connectivity to continue learning during uncertain times. sprint.co/33LaBW8

We’ve always been dedicated to supporting distance learning, but the need is now even more critical. Our partnership with @EdSuperHighway & @SFUnified will connect thousands of #SanFrancisco students living without internet access - helping to ensure their education can continue.

No one can ever be ready for a pandemic, but there are ways to prepare and respond. Read @RSSinformation’s story of how they were able to transition into delivering education - without a classroom. bit.ly/3e4Irdz

Our mission is to help close the #HomeworkGap by providing connectivity. Despite the recent increase in demand for free devices outpacing our supply, our dedication is stronger than ever. Learn the steps we're taking to help new and existing districts purchase more devices.
