Keep up the great work, Angus King! Where is a comparable champion for education in Texas? I am not sure.

This article from August 15th, “Free Internet access boosts benefit of school laptops,” highlights a new program that is providing middle school students as well as 9th and 10th grade students from low-socioeconomic families in Maine with free internet access at home.

This is tangibly bridging the digital divide. We need to be doing this for students in Texas also.

On this day..
