Twitter Facebook In mid-March, after Boston Prep’s administration decided to close the 6–12 charter public school and move classes online because of COVID-19, Julie Duran and a team of teachers began assembling a makeshift warehouse in the school cafeteria. From it, they doled out Chromebook laptops to every student most from low-income communities in Boston’s Hyde Park, Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan neighborhoods. That was only the start. For students who didn’t have internet access at home, the school arranged for wireless hotspots or paid lapsed bills. It also provided breakfasts and lunches to students and their families not just in the spring, but throughout the summer, too. And when they learned that parents who’d lost their jobs weren’t able to pay bills or buy groceries, the school established a family fund to help pay for utilities, food, medical expenses, and more. They are continuing these efforts this school year.
