Minnesota SchoolSpeedTest Month Begins Today!

Today is the first day of the Minnesota SchoolSpeedTest Month.

 Please take a moment now to forward this email to your principals, IT coordinators, and in-school staff and remind them:

1. Starting today, October 28, any teacher, administrator or staff person on the school network can visit the SchoolSpeedTest website (http://partners.schoolspeedtest.org/minnesota.html) and take an automatic one-minute Internet speed test.

 2. With this data, State and District IT staff can prioritize Internet upgrades, make the case for increased investment in school Internet, and support planning for digital learning.

 3. We need 10-20 tests at different times of day from each school site; please forward this email widely and remind people to visit the SchoolSpeedTest website at different times.

Thank you for your participation in this process! We look forward to seeing data from your schools!
