Through AT&T Connected Learning℠, we're investing in connectivity and technology, digital literacy, and digital learning solutions to help connect today’s learners with success – in and out of the classroom. It’s part of our $2 billion commitment to help bridge the digital divide and remove barriers to affordability, access and adoption of tech.

Making Affordable Connections
By combining new plans from our low-cost Access from AT&T program with federal benefits from the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), eligible households can take advantage of free internet.
