EducationSuperHighway is a United States nonprofit organization that directs research and provides advocacy and consultation services to states and school districts in order to connect American public school classrooms to high-speed internet.[1][2] The organization was founded by Evan Marwell in 2012 with the goal to ensure all American classrooms are connected with the FCC-recommended minimum speed of 100 kbit/s per student.[3][4] In 2013, EducationSuperHighway raised $9 million in funding led by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's Startup:Education fund, with additional funding coming from the Gates Foundation.[5] The organization has published a yearly State of the States report that compiles data from the FCC's E-Rate program and helps to connect schools with the funding offered by ERate.[6]

In 2015, the organization raised an additional $20 million from Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan.[7] That same year, EducationSuperHighway's founder and CEO was recognized by the San Francisco Chronicle as Visionary of the Year for the organization's work.[8]
