CBRS is still a long way from being a viable long term solution. I'm sure the reference here is to Tier 3 access. Might be a gap fix, and an expensive one at that. districtadministration.com/s… @DA_magazine @Zalaznick @Ali_Christopher @InsightEnt
The problem is b/c broadband is complicated, most people (certainly school districts) don't know all of the positives and negatives of all of the options.

Learning is not a competition, and grades should reflect comprehension and preparation for next set of challenges. Rank ordering students by deadline compliance rarely correlates with achievement. Competencies do not map to a normalized grade curve.

As an educational leader, you must act. And, when you act, there are times when you are going to fail. If you're afraid of failing, you won't get very far, nothing changes, and children suffer. Fear tomorrow if you don’t act today. Children have one time in school. Be the light.
