His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>Orange County, Fla., has 8,000 missing students. The Miami-Dade County public schools have 16,000 fewer than last year. Los Angeles Unified — the nation's second largest school system — is down nearly 11,000. Charlotte-Mecklenburg in North Carolina has 5,000 missing. Utah, Virginia and Washington are reporting declines statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comprehensive national data aren't available yet, but reporting by NPR and our member stations, along with media reports from around the country, shows enrollment declines in dozens of school districts across 20 states. Large and small, rich and poor, urban and rural — in most of these districts the decline is a departure from recent trends. Over the past 15 years, data from the U.S. Education Department show that small and steady annual increases in public school enrollment have been the rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote citation=\"Chris Reykdal, Washington state superintendent of public instruction\"]'As our nation continues to fight the spread of COVID-19, states across the country are seeing changes in K–12 enrollment as families make decisions about the safest and most effective learning environments for their children.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Six months after schools around the country shut their doors amid coronavirus lockdowns, these fall enrollment declines come as schools have been scrambling to improve remote learning offerings and to adopt safety procedures to allow buildings to open for in-person classes, sometimes just a few days a week. In many parts of the country the start of the year has been marked by multiple changes in plans, widespread confusion among teachers and families, deep concerns about safety and worries about unequal access to technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are not alone in this,\" Chris Reykdal, Washington state's superintendent of public instruction, said in a statement this week announcing a 2.82% decrease in enrollment statewide, driven by a 14% drop in kindergarten. \"As our nation continues to fight the spread of COVID-19, states across the country are seeing changes in K–12 enrollment as families make decisions about the safest and most effective learning environments for their children.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reykdal said operational cuts might be looming, and schools would lobby the state for stopgap funds. \"Counts are taken every month, and if these trends continue, many of our districts will need to make adjustments in the short term even as they plan for booming kindergarten and first grade classes next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Kindergarten and Pre-K Stand Out\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In many places, the enrollment drops are especially noticeable in kindergarten and pre-K. For our reporting, we reached out to more than 100 districts and heard back from more than 60. In our sample, the average kindergarten enrollment drop was 16%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many education experts are skeptical about the virtues of remote learning for very young children, and lots of parents seem to feel the same way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was either going to be virtual or hybrid, or if they were in person it was going to be weirdly socially distant and masked,\" said Megan Olshavsky, whose son was scheduled to start kindergarten this fall in Austin, Texas. \"And he wouldn't be able to interact, really, with other kids.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, her son Jonah, who is almost 6, is staying in his small private Montessori school for kindergarten, where he'll attend in person, full time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We had signed him up to start in Austin in the beginning of the year and then, you know, in the late spring and the summer, we kind of realized that school wasn't going to look normal,\" Olshavsky said. The school district started the year with four weeks of virtual learning before phasing in small groups of students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jonah's Montessori school cut class sizes to fewer than 10 students to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spread. And since it's licensed as a day care, the children aren't required to wear masks. Meanwhile, the Austin Independent School District is down 5,000 students this fall, a 6% drop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olshavsky says she and her husband will have to tighten their belts to afford another year of private school tuition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And school districts stand to lose money as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public schools are generally funded by states on a per-pupil basis. The first week of October marks the first of two \"count days\" in many states — a day in the fall, right at the start of the new fiscal year, where school districts must submit an official enrollment count to determine their funding for the subsequent year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That system tends to favor schools in better-off communities, which get more of their funding from local property taxes, explained Bruce Baker, an education professor at Rutgers University. It's the less well-funded districts that are more dependent on state aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you've got a district where 70, 80% of the money is coming in state aid based on some enrollment count number, which would tend to be a poorer district serving a higher share of low-income and minority students,\" he explained, \"those districts stand to lose a lot if the state decides to follow through with using this year's enrollment counts as a basis for funding in the future.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The potential loss is a hardship for school districts that already are facing the costs of schooling during a pandemic — from masks and hand sanitizer to hiring additional teachers to run both in-person and virtual programs. On top of that, the coronavirus-induced recession has already driven education budget cuts across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"education\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stephanie Elizalde, the superintendent of Austin ISD, told NPR that the state of Texas has agreed to \"hold the district harmless\" for enrollment declines for the fall semester only. She is hoping that students start to show up in greater numbers now that the school doors are open a few days a week. Otherwise, she said, \"We could have huge cuts.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think there's ever been a time I can recall where I visited with colleagues and all of us are like, how are we going to manage this? ... Knowing that you have these cuts during the most economically challenged times and a pandemic is — I mean, that's just unheard of,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baker agrees that a downturn in enrollment this fall does not automatically equal a budget cut next year — states have time to pass measures in the spring to help schools make up the gap in funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the meantime, budget pressures may push schools to make reopening decisions that they wouldn't otherwise. In Florida, for example, enrollment in Miami-Dade, Broward County and Orange County — all of which are in the top 10 largest districts nationwide — has dropped by several thousand students each.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in July, on the same day President Trump implored schools on Twitter to open in the fall, the Florida Department of Education offered school districts the following deal: Reopen and get funded based on the much higher enrollment levels from before the pandemic, or don't, and get funded based on the actual number of students. Plus, districts will get about $2,500 less for every student who remains online-only.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judith Marte, the chief financial officer of Broward County schools, said at a recent school board meeting that the expected enrollment drops of 8,500 students could lead to a significant reduction in a district budget that is already \"disgustingly low.\" And that shortfall, she added, could lead to potentially cutting thousands of jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other hand, echoing the difficult decisions educators around the country have faced, Marte said she worries about the safety of returning students to buildings full time. \"This is also incredibly stressful for staff, it's incredibly stressful for this board and the superintendent ... To do what's right for our community, it's a very, very difficult place to sit,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Bay Area Schools Holding Steady, For Now\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area’s two largest school districts have reported drops in enrollment, but say the decreases are not greater than typical yearly fluctuations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Four weeks into the school year, San Francisco Unified reported 505 fewer students enrolled compared to the same time a year ago. Similarly, Oakland Unified reported 749 fewer students enrolled. Oakland school districts spokesman John Sasaki said enrollment had been flat for the past few years, and called this drop “a larger change than normal, but not huge.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While state funding is tied to enrollment levels, California schools are not facing reductions thanks to the state Legislature, which is holding funding levels to the previous years’ enrollment figures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some charter schools, however, which are seeing significant increases in enrollment this fall — likely due to the pandemic, have sued the state to try and capture more funding to help them serve these additional students.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Concerns About the Youngest Students\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If students are not showing up at their public schools, where are they going? Possibly to private school, though dozens of private schools have shuttered since the start of the pandemic. Child care centers, which may accept pre-K and kindergarten students, are threatened as well. But there are some reports of private schools gaining students even as public schools are losing them, in places where private schools are in person and public schools are virtual or hybrid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The inequity of the situation is just really staggering,\" said Olshavsky, the mother in Austin. \"We were basically able to pay to keep our kid in a safe learning environment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Austin Superintendent Elizalde agrees that her main concern is an \"exacerbation ... of opportunity gaps in students from different economic backgrounds.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not all families have the means to send their children to private school, or devote a parent to home schooling full time. Some families, Elizalde said, will be leaving children home with older siblings or to sit in front of the TV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica Diaz is a nurse in Tampa, Fla., married to a firefighter, with three daughters. Since she and her husband work in high-risk environments, they don't want to send her children to school in person. But she's struggling with the district's online learning offerings, too. Her children's nanny is Spanish-speaking and has trouble with tasks like navigating Zoom class meetings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think [virtual school] is a sustainable option for our family at this point,\" she told NPR. \"For all of the burden of constant emailing, changes in schedules, assignments and submissions, etc., we feel the content of the education that is being delivered is far below our girls' capabilities and not worth the trouble at this point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She plans to pull them out and home-school after the winter break, when she hopes she'll have time to put together a curriculum; but she'll have to do the actual teaching herself in the evening hours after work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts in early childhood education agree with Elizalde that keeping kids out of kindergarten and pre-K, in particular, is likely to exacerbate existing inequalities. Kindergarten is not compulsory in most states. That means children can sit out the year without necessarily doing formal home schooling or private school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They may enter next year as first-graders, or simply delay the start of kindergarten — a practice sometimes called redshirting and, in normal times, more popular among affluent families and boys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Schanzenbach, an economist at Northwestern University who studies redshirting, says starting kindergarten late has no long-lasting educational advantages and may even have some drawbacks, for example in lifetime earnings. And Chloe Gibbs, an economist at the University of Notre Dame, says decades of research have underlined the importance of early childhood enrichment for all children, and especially for children from lower-income and less educated families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have consistent evidence that these kinds of interventions can have big effects on children's both short-term skill development, but really importantly, their long-term life chances,\" Gibbs said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words, pre-K and kindergarten are the rare educational interventions that both narrow gaps and lift all boats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When families keep children home, the opposite may be true, said Gibbs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Parents may be choosing not to send their kids to pre-K or to hold back their age-eligible kids from kindergarten,\" she said. \"And that could be fine for kids in terms of their skill development, if they are in homes where they're ... reading a lot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, she added, what experts really worry about are kids \"for whom this early childhood landscape has changed so much. And what are they getting kind of in the absence of having those important early experiences?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Julia McEvoy of KQED, Ann Doss Helms of WFAE, Claire McInerny of KUT, and Rob Manning and Elizabeth Miller of OPB contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Some families, Elizalde said, will be leaving children home with older siblings or to sit in front of the TV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica Diaz is a nurse in Tampa, Fla., married to a firefighter, with three daughters. Since she and her husband work in high-risk environments, they don't want to send her children to school in person. But she's struggling with the district's online learning offerings, too. Her children's nanny is Spanish-speaking and has trouble with tasks like navigating Zoom class meetings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think [virtual school] is a sustainable option for our family at this point,\" she told NPR. \"For all of the burden of constant emailing, changes in schedules, assignments and submissions, etc., we feel the content of the education that is being delivered is far below our girls' capabilities and not worth the trouble at this point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She plans to pull them out and home-school after the winter break, when she hopes she'll have time to put together a curriculum; but she'll have to do the actual teaching herself in the evening hours after work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts in early childhood education agree with Elizalde that keeping kids out of kindergarten and pre-K, in particular, is likely to exacerbate existing inequalities. Kindergarten is not compulsory in most states. That means children can sit out the year without necessarily doing formal home schooling or private school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They may enter next year as first-graders, or simply delay the start of kindergarten — a practice sometimes called redshirting and, in normal times, more popular among affluent families and boys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Schanzenbach, an economist at Northwestern University who studies redshirting, says starting kindergarten late has no long-lasting educational advantages and may even have some drawbacks, for example in lifetime earnings. And Chloe Gibbs, an economist at the University of Notre Dame, says decades of research have underlined the importance of early childhood enrichment for all children, and especially for children from lower-income and less educated families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have consistent evidence that these kinds of interventions can have big effects on children's both short-term skill development, but really importantly, their long-term life chances,\" Gibbs said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words, pre-K and kindergarten are the rare educational interventions that both narrow gaps and lift all boats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When families keep children home, the opposite may be true, said Gibbs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Parents may be choosing not to send their kids to pre-K or to hold back their age-eligible kids from kindergarten,\" she said. \"And that could be fine for kids in terms of their skill development, if they are in homes where they're ... reading a lot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, she added, what experts really worry about are kids \"for whom this early childhood landscape has changed so much. And what are they getting kind of in the absence of having those important early experiences?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Chief Justice Roberts said that the nearly 500 opinions and dissents she wrote in her 27 years on the bench will “steer the court for decades.” Encountering gender discrimination herself in academia and in the workforce, Justice Ginsburg was an ardent champion of women’s rights. As an attorney, she argued six gender discrimination cases before the Supreme Court in the 1970s, winning five of them. Meanwhile, a political fight is heating up on Capitol Hill over her successor.

Online lesson plans and digital assignments are the new normal. But now, more schools can apply to reopen for in-person instruction. Under a statewide, color-coded monitoring system, schools can apply to reopen if they’re in a county in the red tier which indicates substantial transmission — as opposed to “widespread transmission” — of COVID-19, for at least two weeks. Most Bay Area counties are in the red-tier, including San Francisco which launched an online dashboard to track which schools have applied to and received permission to reopen. Meanwhile, a school district in Marin county has already been holding in-person classes for nearly two weeks, with students wearing masks, staggering arrival and departure times and social distancing on campus. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Julia McEvoy, KQED senior editor of education and equity \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Itoco Garcia, Ed.D., superintendent, Sausalito Marin City School District \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Something Beautiful: fnnch”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week, we end the show by sharing the work of fnnch, a San Francisco muralist and street artist.

In the super rural places that don’t have any kind of cell towers, they’re really without a solution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a battle Anberg has taken on in earnest over the last six months, and now she and the school district may be on the brink of a major victory that would ensure that the all of the district’s approximately 1,300 students have access to high quality, affordable internet service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Alena Anberg, third grade teacher at Arbuckle Elementary School\"]‘I hunted down all the internet company owners until I got their cell phone numbers and I called every single one of them.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Decades earlier, Anberg herself was a victim of spotty internet and low speed service in her home town. It was a thorn in her side when she was a teen mom working and trying to complete her bachelor’s degree online. As a graduate student, she would hunt for cell phone hot spots to take night classes, sometimes sitting in her car in a parking lot, while waiting for her son to finish his classes at the local community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mom was a police officer, a sergeant here, for the local sheriff’s office for a lot of years. My dad was a crane operator,” she said. “I believe education is a catalyst out of poverty for many families. I had kids young myself, so I know what it is to have that struggle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After shelter-in-place orders were issued in March, Anberg became increasingly worried about her students who were not connected to the internet. As a third grade teacher trying to instruct her students via distance learning, the problem of families not having reliable Internet service, or no service at all, galvanized her into action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is our community, the families who are here,” she said. “I feel we need to serve them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Mapping Arbuckle’s Internet\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Anberg began going from home to home, knocking on doors and finding out which families had internet service. She made spreadsheets that mapped it all out, including students’ siblings, then pinned each location in a Google map of internet coverage for her district, Pierce Joint Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many school districts across the country are currently struggling to get this kind of detailed information about their own students, according to Keith Krueger, CEO of the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What you really need is actionable data,” Krueger said. “Which means you have to know student by student, family by family, and that’s highly private.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families trusted Anberg, and eventually she knew which hot spot, carrier and brand worked at which address.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She did this all while teaching during the day and tutoring students remotely after school. In talking with families, Anberg quickly realized a bigger problem was affordability: Many companies were charging a $200 enrollment fee, and while some were offering deals during the pandemic, many local families didn’t know about them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first, Anberg thought the easiest solution would be hot spots, which could help families with cell phones connect more cheaply. She helped the school district procure 200 Wi-Fi hot spots from T-Mobile’s Education Empowerment Program, which arrived in June, free to families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The hot spots would have been a solution if we ever had enough, if we had one to one, and if we had the right brand at the right house,” Anberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families began telling her that their hot spots weren’t working because their homes were in places where T-Mobile didn’t reach or because siblings were trying to share a single hot spot for class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district recently received 300 more hot spots from Verizon, which are being configured to meet privacy requirements before being distributed to families living in areas Verizon serves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11838845\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11838845\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"Adrian Avila and his younger siblings share one hot spot and two computers among them.\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-800x800.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1020x1020.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1472x1472.jpg 1472w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1104x1104.jpg 1104w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-912x912.jpg 912w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-550x550.jpg 550w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-470x470.jpg 470w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Adrian Avila, 14 years-old (front) and his younger siblings share one hot spot and two computers. \u003ccite>(Julia McEvoy/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Still, Anberg had a bigger vision, said Carol Geyer, superintendent of Pierce Joint Unified, who said the district began to rely on Anberg’s expertise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was helping my teachers who didn’t have reliable internet, maybe at home for themselves or for their own children,” said Geyer. “Then she said, ‘Wow, kids aren’t connecting with school.

Lavelock has agreed to lease space from them and install wireless radio equipment needed to relay signals from tower to tower, which will finally bring high speed internet to those areas. And he will waive enrollment fees for new customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By helping Anberg, Succeed.Net will fill in a few of its own coverage gaps, said Lavelock, who grew up in the area and founded his company in 1995.\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not really a big money thing. I’m at the stage where I can now do things just to help the communities,” Lavelock said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Limited Choices\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Lavelock shares Anberg’s frustration with larger internet service providers (ISPs) which collectively have taken billions of dollars in government money to improve infrastructure in rural parts of the state but have not delivered, according to many industry watchdogs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Colusa County, the main provider is Frontier Communications, which recently filed for bankruptcy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Frontier has been the monopoly here for many, many years,” Anberg said. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to the \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.infrastructurereportcard.org/state-item/california/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">2019 California Broadband Infrastructure Report Card\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Colusa County got an F+ grade.

We lost connectivity at the district level.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Frontier told KQED that it had responded promptly to resolve the disruption to Pierce Unified’s service and that the trouble was caused by a piece of equipment that was not available until the next day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a large, geographically diverse area, service interruptions occur,” the company said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11838843\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11838843\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Ariel Johnson (right) and her sister Kaileia Johnson said they often must wait until midnight to do their homework because their internet, which is provided by Frontier, is so slow they can't be on it while family members are using it for work during the day.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1734V2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ariel Johnson (right) and her sister Kaileia Johnson said they must often wait until midnight to do their homework because their internet, which is provided by Frontier, is so slow they can’t be on it while family members are using it for work during the day. \u003ccite>(Julia McEvoy/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Over the years, Anberg has become convinced government should consider internet a public utility like electricity and water, ensuring it is available and affordable to everyone. She had seen effective Wi-Fi networks in rural parts of Costa Rica when she traveled there, and didn’t understand why parts of California, known globally for its tech savvy reuptation, couldn’t make it work. She began to dig into the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I found out that there’s been legislation toward helping rural infrastructure for at least 10 years, in the Connect America I and Connect America II legislation, but that funding went to carriers who absorbed it, but then did not build that infrastructure,” said Anberg. “They weren’t held accountable, because they’re self reporting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an issue that’s long been on the radar of the non-profit advocacy group \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Electronic Frontier Foundation\u003c/a> (EFF).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of the mapping data that the federal government has been relying on is woefully inaccurate,” said Ernesto Falcon, senior legislative counsel at EFF. “But it’s inaccurate because the industry is supposed to report it and there hasn’t been any sort of investigation in terms of who’s abusing their position on that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anberg did her own sleuthing into census-block mapping to find out how Frontier was using its funds. She said Frontier absorbed $140 million in Connect America II funds over four years and claimed it had enhanced broadband to certain addresses in Arbuckle, but when Anberg checked with customers at those addresses they told her their service had not improved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Frontier responded in a statement that it is the Federal Communications Commission, not Frontier, which identifies the specific areas that qualify for funding to enhance broadband services, and that the company is committed to meeting its Connect America Fund obligations according to the program’s requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Frontier continues to apply for and receive state funding. In May it applied for a California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) grant which is being reviewed by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). If approved, Frontier said it is confident it can bring “enhanced broadband to even more of Colusa County.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://public.tableau.com/views/NationalMapofUnconnectedStudentsDynamic_15931159111030/NationalDrilldown?:showVizHome=no&:embed=true\" width=\"1000\" height=\"850\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Public-Private Partnerships\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The CPUC recently saw its authority over the state’s broadband industry restored after ten years of deregulation won by the industry expired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of effort has been happening in California the last couple of years to build up the state’s capacity to regulate these companies themselves,” said EFF’s Falcon. “If the federal government won’t do it, then we should be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, the CPUC approved nearly $11 million for Frontier to deploy “middle mile” fiber and high speed lines in Lassen and Modoc counties. But the connectivity speed the state is requiring is outdated, said the EFF’s Falcon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bill before the state Legislature this past session, Senate Bill 1130, dubbed “Broadband for All,” would have fixed that, requiring ISPs to provide high speed infrastructure, but it died on the floor in August. State Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon said a three-way deal could not be reached, while Long Beach’s state Sen. Lena Gonzalez, a Democrat who sponsored the bill, said no explanation was given for killing the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While legislators squabble, the state has moved to close the digital divide in other ways. Gov. Gavin Newsom pushed the CPUC to make $25 million available from the California Teleconnect Fund for hot spots and internet service for student households. School districts will be able to apply to receive 50% discounts on the cost of hot spot devices and on monthly recurring service charges until Sept. 30 of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond and state Sen. Connie Leyva, D-Chino, assembled a task force of ISPs in April, asking them to come up with solutions. Thurmond has also \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/eo/in/techdevices.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cut deals with different companies\u003c/a>, including Apple and T-Mobile, to get tablets equipped with Wi-Fi to students in need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But tired of waiting, some rural school districts across the country are getting creative on their own by figuring out how to bring the internet into students’ homes through public-private partnerships between state agencies and telecoms, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cosn.org/blog/addressing-homework-gap-through-public-private-partnerships\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">essentially setting up their own community networks\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what Anberg’s district has just decided to do. Faced with footing the bill for hundreds of students’ hot spots to the tune of $72,000 a year, the district hopes instead to use state funds to establish its own district-wide network by joining \u003ca href=\"http://colusacountywifi.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Edunet\u003c/a>, a Colusa County education effort that wants to leverage the educational band of the LTE spectrum to transmit to students’ homes. Anberg was brought in by the superintendent to be part of the talks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am super blessed that the families here trusted me with their internet information, and now I get to honor that by getting them connected,” Anberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After months of relentless work to get students connected, Anberg said she can’t wait to return to the mobile home park where she started this work to tell the families they might finally have an affordable internet option.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Between the new carrier, bringing awareness of options to families, and the hot spots that we already had going, every address will have internet access!!!” Anberg wrote on Facebook. “Can you believe it? Only took six months!”\u003c/p>\n\n",

She grew up in this town of 3,000 and knows the back roads well, which helped as she made several stops to deliver iPads, laptops and old smart phones with SIM cards installed to turn them into Wi-Fi hot spots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the days shortly after the coronavirus pandemic shut down schools, this was Anberg’s daily routine: helping students connect to their teachers online, by any means necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waiting outside his trailer home for the delivery was third grader Antonio Campos and his mom. He smiled shyly when Anberg walked up. The family had Wi-Fi thanks to the hot spot Anberg set them up with earlier, but they didn’t know how to use the Chromebook.

It was a thorn in her side when she was a teen mom working and trying to complete her bachelor’s degree online. As a graduate student, she would hunt for cell phone hot spots to take night classes, sometimes sitting in her car in a parking lot, while waiting for her son to finish his classes at the local community college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mom was a police officer, a sergeant here, for the local sheriff’s office for a lot of years. My dad was a crane operator,” she said. “I believe education is a catalyst out of poverty for many families. I had kids young myself, so I know what it is to have that struggle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After shelter-in-place orders were issued in March, Anberg became increasingly worried about her students who were not connected to the internet. As a third grade teacher trying to instruct her students via distance learning, the problem of families not having reliable Internet service, or no service at all, galvanized her into action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is our community, the families who are here,” she said. “I feel we need to serve them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Mapping Arbuckle’s Internet\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Anberg began going from home to home, knocking on doors and finding out which families had internet service. She made spreadsheets that mapped it all out, including students’ siblings, then pinned each location in a Google map of internet coverage for her district, Pierce Joint Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many school districts across the country are currently struggling to get this kind of detailed information about their own students, according to Keith Krueger, CEO of the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What you really need is actionable data,” Krueger said. “Which means you have to know student by student, family by family, and that’s highly private.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families trusted Anberg, and eventually she knew which hot spot, carrier and brand worked at which address.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She did this all while teaching during the day and tutoring students remotely after school. In talking with families, Anberg quickly realized a bigger problem was affordability: Many companies were charging a $200 enrollment fee, and while some were offering deals during the pandemic, many local families didn’t know about them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first, Anberg thought the easiest solution would be hot spots, which could help families with cell phones connect more cheaply. She helped the school district procure 200 Wi-Fi hot spots from T-Mobile’s Education Empowerment Program, which arrived in June, free to families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The hot spots would have been a solution if we ever had enough, if we had one to one, and if we had the right brand at the right house,” Anberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families began telling her that their hot spots weren’t working because their homes were in places where T-Mobile didn’t reach or because siblings were trying to share a single hot spot for class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district recently received 300 more hot spots from Verizon, which are being configured to meet privacy requirements before being distributed to families living in areas Verizon serves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11838845\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11838845\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"Adrian Avila and his younger siblings share one hot spot and two computers among them.\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-800x800.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1020x1020.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1472x1472.jpg 1472w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-1104x1104.jpg 1104w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-912x912.jpg 912w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-550x550.jpg 550w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2-470x470.jpg 470w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/IMG_1711-scaled_v2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Adrian Avila, 14 years-old (front) and his younger siblings share one hot spot and two computers. \u003ccite>(Julia McEvoy/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Still, Anberg had a bigger vision, said Carol Geyer, superintendent of Pierce Joint Unified, who said the district began to rely on Anberg’s expertise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was helping my teachers who didn’t have reliable internet, maybe at home for themselves or for their own children,” said Geyer. “Then she said, ‘Wow, kids aren’t connecting with school.

She had seen effective Wi-Fi networks in rural parts of Costa Rica when she traveled there, and didn’t understand why parts of California, known globally for its tech savvy reuptation, couldn’t make it work. She began to dig into the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I found out that there’s been legislation toward helping rural infrastructure for at least 10 years, in the Connect America I and Connect America II legislation, but that funding went to carriers who absorbed it, but then did not build that infrastructure,” said Anberg. “They weren’t held accountable, because they’re self reporting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an issue that’s long been on the radar of the non-profit advocacy group \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Electronic Frontier Foundation\u003c/a> (EFF).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of the mapping data that the federal government has been relying on is woefully inaccurate,” said Ernesto Falcon, senior legislative counsel at EFF. “But it’s inaccurate because the industry is supposed to report it and there hasn’t been any sort of investigation in terms of who’s abusing their position on that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anberg did her own sleuthing into census-block mapping to find out how Frontier was using its funds. She said Frontier absorbed $140 million in Connect America II funds over four years and claimed it had enhanced broadband to certain addresses in Arbuckle, but when Anberg checked with customers at those addresses they told her their service had not improved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Frontier responded in a statement that it is the Federal Communications Commission, not Frontier, which identifies the specific areas that qualify for funding to enhance broadband services, and that the company is committed to meeting its Connect America Fund obligations according to the program’s requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Frontier continues to apply for and receive state funding. In May it applied for a California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) grant which is being reviewed by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). If approved, Frontier said it is confident it can bring “enhanced broadband to even more of Colusa County.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://public.tableau.com/views/NationalMapofUnconnectedStudentsDynamic_15931159111030/NationalDrilldown?:showVizHome=no&:embed=true\" width=\"1000\" height=\"850\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Public-Private Partnerships\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The CPUC recently saw its authority over the state’s broadband industry restored after ten years of deregulation won by the industry expired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of effort has been happening in California the last couple of years to build up the state’s capacity to regulate these companies themselves,” said EFF’s Falcon. “If the federal government won’t do it, then we should be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, the CPUC approved nearly $11 million for Frontier to deploy “middle mile” fiber and high speed lines in Lassen and Modoc counties. But the connectivity speed the state is requiring is outdated, said the EFF’s Falcon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bill before the state Legislature this past session, Senate Bill 1130, dubbed “Broadband for All,” would have fixed that, requiring ISPs to provide high speed infrastructure, but it died on the floor in August. State Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon said a three-way deal could not be reached, while Long Beach’s state Sen. Lena Gonzalez, a Democrat who sponsored the bill, said no explanation was given for killing the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While legislators squabble, the state has moved to close the digital divide in other ways. Gov. Gavin Newsom pushed the CPUC to make $25 million available from the California Teleconnect Fund for hot spots and internet service for student households. School districts will be able to apply to receive 50% discounts on the cost of hot spot devices and on monthly recurring service charges until Sept. 30 of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond and state Sen. Connie Leyva, D-Chino, assembled a task force of ISPs in April, asking them to come up with solutions. Thurmond has also \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/eo/in/techdevices.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cut deals with different companies\u003c/a>, including Apple and T-Mobile, to get tablets equipped with Wi-Fi to students in need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But tired of waiting, some rural school districts across the country are getting creative on their own by figuring out how to bring the internet into students’ homes through public-private partnerships between state agencies and telecoms, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cosn.org/blog/addressing-homework-gap-through-public-private-partnerships\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">essentially setting up their own community networks\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what Anberg’s district has just decided to do. Faced with footing the bill for hundreds of students’ hot spots to the tune of $72,000 a year, the district hopes instead to use state funds to establish its own district-wide network by joining \u003ca href=\"http://colusacountywifi.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Edunet\u003c/a>, a Colusa County education effort that wants to leverage the educational band of the LTE spectrum to transmit to students’ homes. Anberg was brought in by the superintendent to be part of the talks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am super blessed that the families here trusted me with their internet information, and now I get to honor that by getting them connected,” Anberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After months of relentless work to get students connected, Anberg said she can’t wait to return to the mobile home park where she started this work to tell the families they might finally have an affordable internet option.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Officials at California State University, the country’s largest four-year public university system, said last week that classes at all 23 campuses will stay primarily online when the next term begins in January, due to expected increases in coronavirus cases later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This decision is the only responsible one available to us at this time,” Chancellor Timothy White said in a message to faculty, staff and 480,000 undergraduate students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In May, CSU was among the first large U.S. universities to announce that most classes this fall would be online because of the pandemic. Currently, less than 10% of courses like labs and other hands-on classes are being taught in person, and on-campus housing has been significantly reduced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The virus continues to spread. There is no vaccine and there likely will not be one widely available any time soon,” White said. “A larger wave continues to be forecast for the period between October and December, coupled with seasonal influenza; this will undoubtedly be a daunting challenge for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also cited “an insufficient testing and contact-tracing infrastructure” as reasons for the “regrettable but necessary decision” to continue the next term virtually.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move comes after several CSU campuses, including San Diego State and CSU Chico, recently halted in-person classes following on-campus outbreaks just days after the start of the fall semester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For students, especially those in San Francisco, the decision to continue classes remotely through the spring comes with significant pros and cons. “On one hand, I am extremely grateful — it’s very apparent as we have seen across the country, college-aged people cannot be trusted to make informed health decisions,” said Siobhán Eagen, a senior at San Francisco State University, majoring in journalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11837965\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11837965\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/1920_IMG_20200914_203958-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">SF State student, Siobhán Eagen sheltered in place at her campus apartment from March to May. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Siobhán Eagen)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Eagen said she is grateful to be part of the CSU system, but she is also heartbroken. “The place I loved myself the most is in an educational setting. I loved being in school,” she said. Her education has been important, especially as someone who faced homelessness and didn’t receive much family support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"education, college\" label=\"More Related Stories\"]But she’s also been able to save money, she said, and recently moved to San Diego. Eagen said her roommate is also saving money this year — and won’t have to take out loans to pay for housing in San Francisco. “It feels almost sick to look at the bright side,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CSU spokesperson Mike Uhlenkamp told KQED that “health and safety is the first priority.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said tuition will remain the same, though there are variations at each campus in regards to fees for housing and parking — which students will not need to pay, unless they are among the small percentage living on campus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uhlenkamp said that while enrollment at SFSU has “dipped a little bit,” overall enrollment is expected to remain roughly the same across the 23-campus system, where some students are still living on campus in single rooms, and about 7% of coursework is being conducted in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also noted that campuses remain open and many are investing in additional software and hardware to loan out to students, including iPads, Chromebooks and Wi-Fi hotspots. Some campuses are also securing parking lots for students to access Wi-Fi in their cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Julie Chang contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Some teachers, like Zellman, have been reassigned to these jobs full time, while other staff, including teachers, administrators, librarians and community schools managers, are being paid to take on the duties on top of other responsibilities, said OUSD Chief Systems and Services Officer Preston Thomas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the district level, OUSD plans to expand its technology team by four full-time equivalent positions, Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since mid-March, the district has fielded an additional 3,041 requests for tech support compared to the same period last year. At this point, district spokesman John Sasaki said, most of the issues families are raising involve the quality of internet connectivity.

Across Oakland Unified, of nearly 25,000 students surveyed, over 19,000 don’t have access to a computer without district help, Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since learning went online in the spring, \u003ca href=\"https://t.e2ma.net/message/5ir8cd/xsl0zg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OUSD has loaned out\u003c/a> 23,000 Chromebooks and 5,000 Wi-Fi hotspots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Bret Harte, survey results show that half of the roughly 550 students don’t have the computer or internet access they need for distance learning without school resources. Some borrowed devices in the spring, and Zellman got loner devices out to most of the rest during the first week of school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as soon as students got the tech, another set of issues cropped up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even when families get home with that Chromebook in hand or that hotspot in hand, they don’t always know how to use it,” Zellman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then, of course, things can go wrong. Seventh-grader Darriah Andrews has been borrowing a Chromebook from her school since the spring. On the phone with Zellman, she explained that it was working fine, then suddenly stopped recognizing her home Wi-Fi network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This internet thing, which is not our internet, keeps popping up and I was trying to delete off the screen, but it wouldn’t come off,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Well, I’m happy to help you,” Zellman said. “This is actually a problem that a lot of the school computers have been having. I actually have a way of fixing it, OK? We’re going to put the computer into what’s called developer mode.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Darriah got connected to Zellman in the second week of school because her teachers noticed she hadn’t been able to connect to Zoom. She’d been trying to use her phone, but, “I lost my phone for a minute,” she said. “I’m not gonna lie.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After she and Zellman got the Wi-Fi dilemma fixed, they moved on to enrolling the computer in the district’s network through \u003ca href=\"https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/1360534?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chrome Enterprise\u003c/a>.

Here they hit a familiar snag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s saying the email and password you entered don’t match,” Darriah said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is going to sound silly, but I want you to make sure that you spelled your name correctly,” Zellman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He knew there had to be some mistake, he told her, because he tested the login on his end and it worked. “I’m going to spell it out for you. Ready?” he said. “So, S for student, and then underscore — that’s where you have to hit shift and then the key that’s next to the zero.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually they got things sorted out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It works!” she said. “Hurray!” Zellman responded, with the enthusiasm of a person who too often sees things work out less well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before hanging up with Darriah, he reminded her to email her teachers to let them know she’s set for class the following day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole process took less than 15 minutes, but sometimes the problems aren’t so simple. If a phone call doesn’t cut it, Zellman uses Zoom or FaceTime, and in the most complicated cases, meets people in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Families get frustrated very easily,” he said. “A lot of the conversations that I have, I’m playing the role of both support, but also doing a little bit of therapy, of ‘It’s OK. This is hard for everybody.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since school started, Zellman estimated he’s helped 40 to 50 students and families. “This feels like all I do,” he said, although his duties also include supporting all Bret Harte’s teachers with their own tech woes. [aside tag=\"education\" label=\"More Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Darriah’s case, a couple days later, the Wi-Fi network issue came back. Darriah’s mother ended up having to switch it out for another borrowed school computer, which so far has been working. Three weeks into the semester, Darriah was finally ready to start school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Darriah and about 225 other Bret Harte students are expected to get a brand new Chromebook — for keeps — through OUSD and the city of Oakland’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandedfund.org/oaklandundivided/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Oakland Undivided\u003c/a>” campaign, which raised $13 million to buy 25,000 computers and 15,000 hotspots for district and charter school students. To date, the district has handed out about 6,500 of those computers and 2,800 of the hotspots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Zellman expects the new devices will be free of some of the problems he sees with the current school loaners, many of which are more than 6 years old, he anticipates a new set of troubles will present themselves. Because these computers won’t be district property, they won’t be enrolled in the district network with its many automatic settings and updates. That’s going to mean more work for parents, and, Zellman suspects, a lot more questions for him.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Across Oakland Unified, of nearly 25,000 students surveyed, over 19,000 don’t have access to a computer without district help, Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since learning went online in the spring, \u003ca href=\"https://t.e2ma.net/message/5ir8cd/xsl0zg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OUSD has loaned out\u003c/a> 23,000 Chromebooks and 5,000 Wi-Fi hotspots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Bret Harte, survey results show that half of the roughly 550 students don’t have the computer or internet access they need for distance learning without school resources. Some borrowed devices in the spring, and Zellman got loner devices out to most of the rest during the first week of school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as soon as students got the tech, another set of issues cropped up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even when families get home with that Chromebook in hand or that hotspot in hand, they don’t always know how to use it,” Zellman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then, of course, things can go wrong. Seventh-grader Darriah Andrews has been borrowing a Chromebook from her school since the spring. On the phone with Zellman, she explained that it was working fine, then suddenly stopped recognizing her home Wi-Fi network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This internet thing, which is not our internet, keeps popping up and I was trying to delete off the screen, but it wouldn’t come off,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Well, I’m happy to help you,” Zellman said. “This is actually a problem that a lot of the school computers have been having. I actually have a way of fixing it, OK? We’re going to put the computer into what’s called developer mode.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Darriah got connected to Zellman in the second week of school because her teachers noticed she hadn’t been able to connect to Zoom. She’d been trying to use her phone, but, “I lost my phone for a minute,” she said. “I’m not gonna lie.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After she and Zellman got the Wi-Fi dilemma fixed, they moved on to enrolling the computer in the district’s network through \u003ca href=\"https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/1360534?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chrome Enterprise\u003c/a>. This enables the district’s content filtering settings, which block kids from gaming sites and other web material deemed inappropriate, and automatically installs certain browser extensions and apps students need for school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11836104\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11836104\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44438_002_KQED_Oakland_OUSDTechGiveaway_08172020-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">School staff help to handout laptops at three co-located schools, Futures Elementary, Community United Elementary and Coliseum College Prep Academy during the #OaklandUndivided Campaign on Aug. 17, 2020. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I want you to hit control shift and the letter E, like elephant,” Zellman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Darriah was on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All right, now, does it say enterprise enrollment?” he asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So you’re gonna type in a special email address,” Zellman continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, Zellman walked Darriah through logging into her school email account, where her teachers have been sending emails she hasn’t been able to access. Here they hit a familiar snag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s saying the email and password you entered don’t match,” Darriah said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is going to sound silly, but I want you to make sure that you spelled your name correctly,” Zellman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He knew there had to be some mistake, he told her, because he tested the login on his end and it worked. “I’m going to spell it out for you. Ready?” he said. “So, S for student, and then underscore — that’s where you have to hit shift and then the key that’s next to the zero.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually they got things sorted out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It works!” she said. “Hurray!” Zellman responded, with the enthusiasm of a person who too often sees things work out less well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before hanging up with Darriah, he reminded her to email her teachers to let them know she’s set for class the following day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole process took less than 15 minutes, but sometimes the problems aren’t so simple. If a phone call doesn’t cut it, Zellman uses Zoom or FaceTime, and in the most complicated cases, meets people in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Families get frustrated very easily,” he said. “A lot of the conversations that I have, I’m playing the role of both support, but also doing a little bit of therapy, of ‘It’s OK. This is hard for everybody.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since school started, Zellman estimated he’s helped 40 to 50 students and families. “This feels like all I do,” he said, although his duties also include supporting all Bret Harte’s teachers with their own tech woes. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
