iLearn Agreement
New families will need to sign the i-Learn Agreement in order for their child to be assigned a digital device. Forms will be provided to parents during device roll-out at the beginning of the school year. If your family has signed an i-Learn Agreement last year, you do not need to resign one this year.
Hotspots & Internet Access
Mobile Phone Hotspots
By enabling the hotspot feature on your phone, you can connect a district-issued device to the internet. This will use data if your mobile plan allows only a limited amount of data each month. Many carriers have removed data caps in response to COVID-19. Check with your mobile phone carrier (T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon) before proceeding in order to avoid additional fees.
You must enable this feature on your device:
Internet Access
There is a new program which can assist families with Internet access called the Emergency Broadband Benefits Program!
The Emergency Broadband Benefit Program is a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program that provides a temporary discount on monthly broadband bills for qualifying low-income households. If your household is eligible, you can receive:
- Up to a $50/month discount on your broadband service and associated equipment rentals
- Up to a $75/month discount if your household is on qualifying Tribal lands
- A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer (with a co-payment of more than $10 but less than $50)
Visit getemergencybroadband.org for more information and to apply.
Comcast is offering two (2) months free to new Internet Essentials (phone: 855-846-8376) customers in response to anticipated emergency measures associated with COVID-19 (coronavirus). Spanish and English flyers are available here.
CenturyLink offers Lifeline (phone: 855-954-6546 or 888-833-9522), a low-cost internet service, to individuals who qualify.
Xfinity WiFi hotspots across the country will be available for anyone who needs them for free - including non-Xfinity Internet subscribers. For a map of Xfinity Wifi hotspots in Eden Prairie, visit www.xfinity.com/wifi and enter your zip code.
Eden Prairie Schools is providing this information as a courtesy to families, not as an endorsement of the services provided.
To assist families who may need to show proof of eligibility, Eden Prairie Schools will be sending letters of confirmation of free or reduced-price lunch status to families that have already qualified this year.
