HOUSTON – Kindergarten through 12th grade students who are still in need of internet access for schoolwork can visit some Houston-area Boys & Girls Clubs to obtain free access to Wi-Fi, thanks to a partnership with Comcast.

In a press release, Comcast said it will provide safe Wi-Fi hotspots to help lower income students get online so they can participate in their distance learning classes and get their homework done.
