Schools and Parents
How was the experience your children – and you – had during online school and hybrid learning? The past 2 years has shown us that learning extends beyond the classroom, but learning from home is only possible if you have the internet to do so. It’s also shown us how limited we can be working from home when our kids are online.

Did you Know?
Consumers with broadband internet at home save (on average) more than $7,000 per year. For example, broadband enables real-time money management (cancel/change subscriptions), reduces banking fees and bill paying costs, results in higher savings through enrollment in automated savings and emergency fund deposits, and it allows for greater shopping and cost comparisons and to search out digital deals and coupons.

Did You Know?
Without robust broadband in St. Helens, residents and business can’t take advantage of existing and emerging economic opportunities. For example, there is growing awareness that all jobs are “tech jobs,” requiring at least a basic level of digital awareness, aptitude and experience with devices, programs and interfaces to effectively function in the workplace.
