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 CalRENThe 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 connectThe vast majority of K-12 Community

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

ConnectED GoalsCalls 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
