I have two kids in elementary school. Our school district issues Chromebooks for all students in the district and have been doing this for several years. We are fortunate to have Google Fiber in the city and have a fairly high percentage of households with broadband. I believe the district already worked with families prior to the outbreak to provide hotspots.

The students will resume class on Tuesday, but they did a quick systems check today and it went a lot better than I would have expected. The teachers and school district have worked very hard to pull this off quickly.

For students that receive free and reduced food, the district has set up delivery locations at various spots in the city so kids will still have access while the physical schools are closed.

I don't know how they will handle some of the special classes like physical education or music yet, that will be interesting to see.
