[1st-mile-nm] State School & Library Connectivity Profiles

STATE SCHOOL CONNECTIVITY PROFILES

[SOURCE: Federal Communications Commission, AUTHOR: Jon Wilkins]

Outreach to state and school district staff and library leaders has been a critical element of the E-rate modernization process. Federal Communications Commission staff has been in frequent contact with staff from school districts, state agencies, libraries, and research and education networks (RENs) from across the country. These outreach efforts provide important insights on the varying approaches that states are taking to the challenge of delivering high-speed broadband to all schools and libraries. Much of the knowledge gained from our outreach is compiled in the State Connectivity Profiles. These profiles provide a thorough summary of connectivity data, purchasing strategies, and broadband deployment policies from a geographically diverse sample of states with differing populations and approaches to delivering high-speed broadband to all schools and libraries. All connectivity data and narrative descriptions in the State Connectivity Profiles are drawn from conversations with school district, state agency, or REN staff and have been reviewed and verified by the appropriate staff in each state.

The New Mexico section of the Report begins on page 35.
