Schools & Kids

New York City is distributing 350,000 internet-enabled Chromebooks to public school students across five boroughs, targeting the digital divide in underserved communities. Mayor Eric Adams announced the $129 million initiative on Sept. 8, 2025, ensuring K-12 students can access education anywhere with built-in LTE or 5G from T-Mobile. The phased rollout prioritizes aging devices and high-poverty schools.[1][3]
