The Federal Communications Commission has a new program to lower costs for families and close the digital divide. As part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the President and Congress created the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides eligible households up to $30/month (or $75/month for households living on Tribal lands) toward their internet bills, as well as a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet.
\r\nAll households with a child who was approved to receive free or reduced price school meals under the National School Lunch Program or the School Breakfast Program, within the last 12 months, including children who attend schools participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (ALL BARTON STUDENTS), are eligible for ACP benefits.

This is no affiliation with Barton School District directly. It is a service that all of our students are eligible for. You will have to contact the FCC for assistance if any is needed. No one at Barton School District can assist with the application.
