  • HONORABLE MAYOR FROM: Jill Bourne and CITY COUNCIL
    TO: HONORABLE MAYOR FROM: Jill Bourne AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: SJ ACCESS – STUDENT HOTSPOT DATE: April 29, 2021 PROGRAM OVERVIEW Approved Date 4/29/2021 INFORMATION This memorandum provides a detailed overview of the SJ Access – Student Hotspot program, which has provided 12,800 student households with a hotspot and a high-speed unlimited data plan for the main purpose of connecting to distance learning. As noted in the Rules and Open Government Committee Meeting on April 7, 2021, an Informational Memorandum was requested to provide an overview of the Student Hotspot program, in lieu of the deferred Annual Report of the Education and Digital Literacy Strategy, to be heard by the Neighborhood Services and Education Committee in Fall 2021. A single page overview of the program is provided as Attachment A. School Closures On March 13, 2020, the Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) announced that beginning on Monday, March 16, 2020, schools in Santa Clara County would shift to distance learning in response to growing cases of COVID-19 in the community. This closure was originally announced for a three-week duration and preceded the March 16 announcement of a regional Shelter-in-Place order. With few exceptions, schools remained closed and relied on distance learning programs through June 2020, and remained closed for the majority of the 2020- 2021 school year until April 2021, when Local Education Agencies (LEAs) began large-scale reopening plans, many of which include a hybrid learning approach (leveraging both distance and in-person learning). Addressing Insufficient Connectivity On April 21, 2020, staff provided the City Council with an update on digital access and inclusion efforts, specifically related to the need to assist schools and students during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Addressing the Needs of the Homeless: A San José Library Partnership Approach In 2003, the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library opened its doors to the diverse San José, California community. The joint city-university library system consisting of San Jose Public and the San Jose State University Libraries won national acclaim for its architectural design (Berry III, 2004), including two sets of main doors which permit entrance from the city side with a clear view into the campus on the university side. This architectural feature permits a person, independent of his or her economic means, to enter the main city library building and “see” the possibility of entering the campus to earn a degree and advance socially, economically, and professionally.
