Free, high-speed internet available to eligible HISD families

Deadline for families to register extended to Dec. 19

Access to reliable internet is an essential part of a student’s educational journey.

In another step to close the digital divide, the district is inviting households to apply for high-speed broadband internet through a partnership with the Texas Education Agency Connect Texas (TEACT) program.

A limited number of lines are available and will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.

Families have two ways to determine if they are eligible for free internet access:

  1. For the quickest response, families can check their eligibility at HoustonISD.org/FreeInternet.
  2. Alternatively, families can fill out this form and return it to their school office.

Eligible families will be contacted to proceed with installation.

The deadline to apply is Dec. 19.
