What is E-rate?

Each year, the E-rate program provides up to $3.9 billion in discounts on essential broadband services for schools and libraries across the country. Funding from the FCC helps make high-speed Internet access and reliable Wi-Fi more affordable. Discounts depend upon the level of poverty and location of the school or library seeking support. These services provide connections used for learning and development.
