Wired schools
WiFi is not safe for our kids. We recommend wired Ethernet internet connections at schools.
We advocate that all schools, including Spokane District 81 follow the recommendations shared by ehtrust.org.
Here is a sampling from the EHTrust Website. We highly recommend EHTrust.org as your first stop for both scientific and practical information.:
