Hello Raiders,
The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a program that provides a $30 monthly discount on home internet. All Midwest Central student households qualify because we are a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) district as part of the National School Lunch Program. The link below will take you to the site at which you apply. Nearly all internet providers participate in the program.
The application process is fairly painless. Here are some tips for applying.
1. Use your students legal name on the website that matches the name used for school enrollment. Only one student per household is necessary.
2. Call your students school and request a letter for proof of enrollment be emailed to you. They only take a .jpg (picture) or .pdf so we'll send you an electronic letter of proof of enrollment.
3. There may be individual steps your service provider requires. Work with your provider on those.
