Abstract	Linked Learning transforms student learning experiences by bringing meaning and motivation to the school day. It integrates college and career preparation by combining rigorous academic coursework, sequenced career and technical education, work-based learning experiences, and comprehensive support services. Today, Linked Learning is working in more than 100 California school districts, with more than 650 pathways. Compared to their peers in traditional high school programs, Linked Learning students: (1) earn more credits by the end of high school; (2) complete more college-preparatory courses; (3) are less likely to drop out of school; (4) are more likely to graduate from high school; and (5) are more likely to enroll in a four-year college. For the nation's young people, the COVID-19 pandemic will have an indelible impact on their future prospects for college and careers. As schools continue with remote instruction this school year, those offering Linked Learning pathways have transitioned their programs to an online environment. Yet the students who could gain the most from participating in Linked Learning--students of color and those from low-income families--also are the ones least likely to have the internet access and devices needed to experience Linked Learning from home. By appropriating $6.8 billion in the next COVID-19 legislative package, Congress can provide students in California and nationwide with the high-speed home internet access and devices they need to stay motivated and engaged in meaningful educational experiences, including Linked Learning.
