History
Then Lieutenant Governor, Jodi Rell, launched an unprecedented effort to guarantee that Connecticut’s schools and libraries have access to the best possible technology and that students are “cyber-ready” by the sixth grade. Her work resulted in the creation of the Connecticut Education Network, the nation’s first all-optical network.[2] The Connecticut Education Network was signed into law in the year 2000 under Connecticut general statute §4d-82a.[3] By 2005, every public school district in Connecticut was online.
