Education and technology groups are raising concerns that the Federal Communications Commission’s review of the $3bn E-rate program could restrict or potentially end a critical source of broadband funding for schools and libraries. Established in 1996, E-rate provides discounted connectivity that now supports not only classroom technology, but also essential operations, including security systems, HVAC controls, and school bus tracking. Advocates argue that concerns about student screen time should be addressed through curriculum decisions rather than changes to connectivity funding. Schools and libraries received more than $13bn through E-rate between 2021 and 2025, with higher discounts going to lower-income communities. Aldine Independent School District in Houston, where nearly all 50,000 students are economically disadvantaged, has received about $11m from the program over the past five years. Aldine Superintendent LaTonya Goffney warned that reducing E-rate support would create an immediate budget shortfall that could force the district to redirect money from teachers, programs, and other services. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr said the review is intended to empower parents, strengthen program integrity, streamline administration, and better protect children. Public comments are due October 13.

U.S. school districts are seeing superintendent turnover fall toward pre-pandemic levels, while research suggests that leadership stability is associated with stronger student outcomes. An ILO Group analysis of the 500 largest districts found turnover fell to 17%, from 20% to 23% over the previous five years, with only 78 districts maintaining consistent leadership since the pandemic. Students in districts without leadership changes between 2019 and 2025 recorded at least one additional month of learning in reading and math, while separate research found that repeated turnover in high-poverty districts was associated with students falling roughly two months behind in math and six weeks behind in reading. Financial pressures may also be discouraging leadership changes, given the cost of superintendent searches, while women now account for 34% of superintendents across the 500 largest districts.
