**Digital Divide Focus:** Student internet access outside of school. At our school, students may have computers available at home. Connectivity to the internet can be a different issue. In a class of 20, 7 students may have a computer at home. Of those 7 only 3 will have internet access.

1.Equitable Access
 * Three Most important Focus Points in the Essential Conditions: **

2.Engaged Communities

3.Supportive External Context

Robust and reliable access is not guaranteed outside of the classroom or school setting.
 * These relate to our Digital Divide Focus in the following ways:**

Partnerships and collaboration between the community and school may not exist because of lack of funding.

Policies and innitaitives necessary to support schools may not be a priority at the local level.

**Our plan for addressing and improving these points:** Keep school computer labs open and available for students and their parents outside of school hours.
