Cell Phones:
○ All major carriers will have unlimited high speed data for the next two months as part of the "Keep America Connected" pledge. Even more important, most cell phone and home internet companies have pledged NOT to disconnect service for unpaid bills for the next two months. This means that our students will not lose their internet if a family is unable to pay the bill during this time.
