Wi-Fi on School Buses Gets a Green Light from the FCC

Admin — Thu, 19 Oct 2023 05:00:00 GMT

Washington, DC - In a ruling proposed by FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel earlier today, E-Rate funding can be used to provide Wi-Fi on school buses. This ruling will have an everlasting and substantial impact, especially on rural and socioeconomically disadvantaged youth across the country. In making this decision, the FCC recognizes the importance of connecting students to the internet, where they can investigate their interests from outside of the classroom. This ruling is also a stance in favor of digital equity and access for so many school-aged students who lack high-speed internet at home. By providing Wi-Fi on school buses, students’ learning time will be extended to include their commutes to and from school as well as sports and other extracurricular activities. Students can use their time on the bus to complete homework, do research, and study for exams.

Premier Wireless commends the FCC on this ruling and looks forward to partnering with school districts and transportation departments nationwide. Wi-Fi on school buses will not only extend learning time for students, but by leveraging innovative technologies, it can improve bus safety as well.

Chicago Public Schools Lands 3rd Place at T-Mobile’s “Unconventional Awards” by Leveraging Premier Wireless’ Innovative CPR³ Solution for Homeless Youth

Admin — Fri, 06 Oct 2023 05:00:00 GMT

Las Vegas, NV - September 27, 2023 – As the epidemic of homelessness across the country continues to grow, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) has taken decisive action to support students in temporary living situations across Chicago. By utilizing Premier Wireless’ innovative solution for youth experiencing homelessness, CPS was awarded third place at T-Mobile’s “Unconventional Award” for “Innovation in Community,” which “recognizes disruptors in government, education, and public safety who bring new innovations to their organizations.”

Receiving the award in Las Vegas, CPS was recognized for leveraging innovative technology to assist some of Chicago’s most vulnerable students. CPS serves approximately 13,000 Students in Temporary Living Situations (STLS), with over 1,000 being unaccompanied minors facing the challenges of homelessness. The collaborative effort from Premier Wireless, a T-Mobile Elite Partner, and the CPS system’s STLS program has been immensely impactful to the students and educators the collaboration supports. This award-winning initiative aims to remove critical barriers such as inconsistent housing, transportation, nutrition, and, most importantly, a lack of consistent and reliable connectivity for these students.

Mr. Marcellus Summers, Students in Temporary Living Situations Coordinator, expressed the significance of this partnership and innovation, stating, “The CPR³ program has been outstanding. This has been a very critical lifeline for these students to stay connected and stay in touch. They update us on where they might be living or where they plan on going jobs, and food services. This is their ultimate lifeline to stay connected to those that are able to help them.”
