This document discusses options for improving internet connectivity for the Prairie Rose School Division. It notes that the division currently spends around $655,000 over 5 years for internet access through an existing virtual network connection. Upgrading the existing wireless network would cost around $225,000 per year, while switching to another provider could cost a similar amount over 10 years. The best option discussed is to bury the division's own fiber optic cable network at a cost of $2 million, which would provide high-speed gigabit capacity for schools, businesses, and communities into the future. Partnerships with internet providers are suggested to help offset costs and apply for government grants.
