From fostering equitable access to enhancing the classroom experience, private cellular networks are transforming K-12 education. With the rise of digital learning tools, the need for continuous, reliable wireless connectivity has never been more important.
In this changing educational landscape, can private 5G networks serve as the infrastructure backbone to support various on-campus and remote educational activities? Do school districts understand how best to leverage the transformative potential of private 5G? and more importantly, can it help close the stubborn digital divide in the most cost-effective way? Let’s find out.
Our guest for today’s podcast is Jason Eyre, the Technology Department Coordinator for the Murray City School District. Jason is a pioneer in rolling out CBRS private LTE networks at K-12 schools and is often called the godfather of Utah’s education broadband plan. He was instrumental in the very early adoption of private networks by the Murray School District.
In our discussion today, we will uncover:
- The learnings from the last two years of private LTE deployment
- How a long-time user of K-12 private networks has evolved with the times
- What advice a network pro would give to a school thinking of deploying a private network
So, let us welcome Jason Eyre.
