Thanks to federal tax dollars, Peoria Unified School District is providing 30,000 laptops for its students this school year. abc15

PEORIA, AZ — Peoria Unified School District is providing 30,000 laptops for its students this school year.

The district says it was able to purchase the equipment through the FCC Emergency Connectivity Fund, aimed at providing tools and services in schools throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The large number of laptops will allow every student in kindergarten through 12th grade a laptop for use during the 2022-2023 school year. It will make it so students have better access to technology to aid in their learning.

Students in younger grades may keep their laptops at school to be checked out during the day as needed, and older students can bring them home each evening to continue schoolwork. Specific rules for each grade will be communicated to the students. The district’s technology team has reportedly worked on the computers since February and has spent 60,000 total hours programming the computers for this year’s student use.

Nearly 50,000 LAUSD students reported absent on first day of new school yearThe Los Angeles Unified School District kicked off the new school year with nearly 50,000 students reported absent on the first day of class. Ok but why is that kid on the front page…. He looks like he showed up! Some people changed to other school districts when LAUSD was closed in-person for 17 months, plus the permanent masking and vaccination requirements. Others moved to home school. They anticipated a permanent 20K - 30K drop in attendance this year. 50K would be massive. Going to a LAUSD school is exactly the same as not going to school at all. In fact, the kids that didn't go to school show a slight margin of being better off.
