Citywide Classroom South Bend is a collaborative partnership to expand connectivity resources typically found in South Bend classrooms into the neighborhoods and homes of the students we serve.
Through multiple studies, we have determined that 15-30% of South Bend Community School Corporation students experience connectivity challenges. Without high-speed internet access, these students experience challenges communicating with teachers and have difficulty completing assignments, and therefore, fall behind in their coursework.

Lack of access especially during times of remote learning threatens to leave our students behind. We are providing internet services and devices to local students and families in the City of South Bend to make sure they can continue to learn effectively.

CCSB is now accepting applications!

To apply, please contact your schools' CCSB Access Team.
