Free (or nearly free) Internet Access!
The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a U.S. government program run by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program to help low-income households pay for internet service and connected devices like a laptop or tablet. This comes from the COVID-19 Emergency Broadband Benefit.
ALL SMG Families Qualify, due to being a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school!

If you don't qualify for Internet Essentials and can't otherwise afford internet service or have limited options, check into T-Mobile Home Internet. Service is $60/mo, so after the EBB it is down to $10/mo with no commitment, setup fees, or equipment fees.
