Free Internet Access
What is the "homework gap?"
The homework gap refers to the divide between students who have home broadband access and those who do not. It is also an indicator of whether or not a student will be able to complete their homework and succeed in school alongside their internet-connected peers. Across our country, nearly five million households with school-aged children lack high-quality broadband access at home.
Wissahickon School District is working to eliminate this gap for our students. We have a number of local resources in our community that can support a need for fast, reliable internet access. Thank you to WHS Special Education teacher, Mr. Jay VanCassele, for collecting this information to support each and every student at WHS.
Families may also consider Comcast Internet Essentials which provides low-cost Internet service options ($9.95 a month).
Due to COVID-19, some locations may not be available or have modified hours.
