California K-12 High Speed Network A State Program at your Service EXPANDING K-12 access to rich content resources to enhance teaching and learning ENABLING those resources to be reliablyavailable PROMOTING K-20 collaboration
The Short History • 2000-01, K-12 was added to the California Research and Education Network (CalREN), which previously served the UC and CSU systems. • 2000-01 through 2003-04, funding for K-12’s services were passed by University of California to CENIC. • 2004 the State legislature shifted funding to an LEA through the CDE (thereby capturing the expenditure as a Prop 98 expense). • To accomplish the shift, CDE issued an RFP and awarded the K-12 High Speed Network to the consortium led by Imperial County Office of Education and including Butte COE and Mendocino COE. • In 2006, AB1228 codified the program under Education Code §11800 and established goals for the K12HSN.
The CalREN The California Research and Education Network (CalREN) serves the California K-20 community: • State of California’s University of California (UC) system • State of California’s State University (CSU) system • State of California Community College system • Private California Universities that opt to connect • The vast majority of K-12 Community
CENIC - CalREN • As of November 2013, 88% of California School Districts and almost 7,800 schools (83%) are connected to CalREN through K12HSN • In this aggregation model, districts are able to procure affordable connections to one of the 72 K12HSN Node Sites
Key Bandwidth Drivers in K12 • Common Core State Standards • Technology Embedded in the standards • 1:1 initiatives • Online Computer Assessments (CAASPP) • Transition to off-premise services (cloud) • E-mail, Student Information Systems, Storage, Disaster Recovery
Themes • Increased “appetite” for bandwidth • Network traffic growth rate is rapidly increasing • Leveraging and increased collaboration amongst education segments • Technology embedded in instruction, not to supplement
ConnectED Goals Calls for connecting 99% of America’s students, through next-generation broadband (at speeds no less than 100Mbps and with a target of 1Gbps) to, and high-speed wireless within, their schools and libraries by 2018
Circuit Pricing Example Circuit Size HighLow Average 45 Mbps(13) $17,776 $2,247 $7,360 1 Gbps(66) $10,235 $2,817 $4,301 10 Gbps(13) $14,755 $5,635 $6,517
Simple Math (by 2018) 10587 Schools upgrading to 1 Gbps $4,301 monthly x 12 = $51,612 $51,612 x 10587 schools = $546.5 M /year E-rate Subsidy (65% average) = $355 M Subject to CTF (35% remaining) = $191.5 M 50% of $191.5M = $95M potential K12 draw
Challenges • The 4 “R” s • Rural • Remote • Redwoods • RTI $ model
Equity of Access For Student Learning • At school sites • At communities centers • At student/family residences
