Kajeet Vows to Keep Schools Connected After FCC's E-Rate Cut
Kajeet, a leading provider of managed, education-grade connectivity solutions, has reassured its commitment to America's school districts and libraries. This comes after the FCC's decision to end E-Rate support for school bus Wi-Fi and hotspots.
Kajeet offers end-to-end wireless connectivity services, including secure, CIPA-aligned internet access with content filtering and real-time analytics. Since 2003, it has helped thousands of organizations safely connect millions of devices.
The company provides funding navigation support, guiding clients on alternative state and local options and aligning connectivity to instructional priorities. Kajeet also offers a range of hardware options to ensure devices and Wi-Fi reach those in need during the school year. Looking ahead, Kajeet will assist districts and libraries in mapping a sustainable path for equitable access to modern connectivity tools.
Districts and libraries have requested $42.6 million for hotspots and $15.3 million for school bus Wi-Fi using E-Rate funds for fiscal year 2025. Kajeet addresses budget realities with flexible options like multi-carrier pooling, seasonal or month-to-month terms, and right-sizing data plans.
Despite the FCC's decision, Kajeet remains committed to supporting America's school districts and libraries. Its Sentinel management platform ensures CIPA-aligned filtering and detailed usage analytics. With Kajeet's services, schools and libraries can continue to provide safe and reliable internet access to students and patrons.
