How can Smoky Hill Education Service Center help me take advantage of the savings?
The Smoky Hill Education Service Center has been providing E-Rate assistance to schools since the federal program started in 1998. The SHESC E-Rate team has diverse backgrounds in education and technology, ensuring that you are able to take full advantage of the program.
