| Abstract | Technology plays an important role in education today, from homework assignments that require online research or peer collaboration to virtual tutoring or advanced courses that are not accessible at a student's assigned school. Additionally, schools can turn to online learning when inclement weather hits, school buildings need repair or in response to public health emergencies. Students may rely on it when personal situations, such as extended hospitalization, preclude school attendance. While the digital divide persists for multiple reasons, the lack of broadband infrastructure and affordability are the two primary drivers. Fortunately, state policymakers have the ability to allocate new and existing state and federal dollars to address the challenges families face, meet students' needs and open new educational opportunities. The policy brief discusses: (1) raising awareness of broadband affordabilty programs; (2) prioritizing education in state and federal broadband grant programs; and (3) establishing K-12 broadband reports to identify needs and monitor progress.
