K–12 Student Digital Divide Much Larger Than Previously Estimated and Affects Teachers, Too, New Analysis Shows

With the prospect of another distance learning school year on the horizon due to the Coronavirus pandemic, a new analysis released finds that a full 15 to 16 million public school students across the United States live in households without adequate internet access or computing devices to facilitate distance learning. The analysis, from Common Sense and Boston Consulting Group, also finds that almost 10% of public school teachers (300,000 to 400,000) are also caught in the gap, affecting their ability to run remote classes. The 32-page report, Closing the K–12 Digital Divide in the Age of Distance Learning, fixes a one-year price tag of at least $6 billion and as much as $11 billion to connect all kids at home, and an additional $1 billion to close the divide for teachers.

Black Homeschooling Is A Choice

In some circles, homeschooling has been controversial in the Black community due to the hardships African-Americans faced who fought for equal public educational opportunities. Brown v. Board of Education was passed in 1954 to enforce the integration of public schools for Black and Brown students and their White counterparts. Many Black family members and education activists fought long and hard for those rights. However, nowadays there is a rise in the numbers of Black parents who are choosing to homeschool as a way to protect and do what they believe is best for their children.

There Is No Separating the Intersection of Life and School

I believe this commitment is vital to the creation of more equitable educational institutions. Key to that is the way we amplify the pipeline of educators of color: we must brand equity in educational institutions and convey its importance in its truest form – as one of, if not the most important social justice issues – as it is an issue that permeates through fragile communities across America.
