A federal judge has ruled 114,000 homeless students in New York City are to have their day in court. Business Insider reports a judge has allowed a class-action lawsuit to advance to expedite the roll-out of WiFi to homeless shelters across the city. The suit was filed when homeless students were unable to access the internet in homeless shelters during periods of remote learning this year. Business Insider reports the city provided students with iPads with unlimited cellular data, but many have had trouble getting proper cell service. US District Judge Alison Nathan wrote in her opinion that homeless students are deprived of their right to education without internet connectivity. For as long as that deprivation exists, the City bears a duty...to furnish them with the means necessary for them to attend school. US District Judge Alison Nathan
Nashua, Oct 2 (EFE / EPA) .- The physical education teacher at the Nashua school, John Barry, began to build desks for his students after seeing, during online classes, that many of them had to study in the kitchen or on the bedroom floor. With the help of science teacher Dan Scarpeti, he came up with an inexpensive desk design and together they started making them. The two of them were soon joined by more teachers: Chris Gill, Cathy Belangerm, Bill Dubois, Rick Simoneau, Jeff Pellitier and John Lysik. Now that they have raised several thousand dollars, they plan to make desks for needy students. (Camera: CJ GUNTHER)SHOT LIST: TEACHERS MAKING DESKS FOR STUDENTS.

Rome (Italy), 17 June, EFE, (Camera: Jorge Ortiz).- Around half a million Italian students are set to take their university entrance exams more than three and a half months after schools were closed to contain the spread of Covid-19.
