Education Now Requires Internet Access
School districts assume students can log in. But for millions, home is still offline.
- 15 million K–12 students lack a computer or internet at home
- 1 in 3 low-income students can’t complete digital homework
- Students without tech are 2x more likely to repeat a grade
This is called the homework gap, and it reinforces inequality every day.
When Access Dictates Academic Success
| Access Level | High School Graduation Rate | College Enrollment |
|---|---|---|
| Full tech access | 95% | 72% |
| Limited access | 83% | 54% |
| No access | 68% | 34% |
The numbers are clear: no computer = lost potential.
The Digital Divide Is Also a Social Divide
Without a computer or internet at home, students are blocked from:
- STEM learning tools
- Virtual tutoring
- Scholarship applications
- College admissions
- Career exploration
- Workforce readiness
Technology isn’t a luxury—it’s education.
