Students who don't have reliable internet access at home can do their remote learning in parking lots, the School District of Philadelphia says.
"Parking Lot" WiFi is one of the options listed on the distrct website for kids whose households aren't yet connected. Included along with other free or low-cost alternatives from Comcast, Verizon and T-Mobile, it's described as "accessible around the exterior of a building such as a school or library - and generally reachable from the facility's parking lot."
