LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Beginning March 16, Charter Spectrum will offer households with K-12 and college students free broadband internet for 60 days.
This comes as many schools and universities across the United States have closed or have e-Learning classes amid the COVID-19 outbreak.
Charter Spectrum is only offering this to households who do not already have a Spectrum broadband subscription. The company also says they are partnering with school districts to ensure local communities are aware of these tools to help students learn remotely.
A number of Kentuckiana schools have closed and have elected to have e-Learning days. Click here to see a full list.
