When challenges are presented,
the best rise to meet them.
MSDMV takes seriously the needs and education of every student in our district. Access to affordable, reliable internet remains a challenge for families in and around Mt. Vernon.
Out of this challenge comes ConnectMV.
It's the initiative of MSDMV to ensure all our students have the online access they need to achieve a quality education.
Any family with a child currently enrolled in the MSD of Mt. Vernon (either in-person or virtual) and has limited or no access to the Internet.
Each family will receive one hotspot that all students can connect to. If there are issues with this setup we ask that they report it through a trouble ticket.
No, these hotspots are programmed to only work with devices issued from the MSD of Mt. Vernon.
Near a window if possible. You might try multiple windows to find the best signal.

We have had varying success with students attending Google Meets on a hotspot. This issue is solely related to location and cell coverage. If a student is having issues they should attend the Google Meet by phone or request a link to the video from their teacher once it is over.
