AT&T and Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise have teamed up to make the school bus a classroom on wheels, introducing a "Connected Bus" solution that helps K-12 school districts deliver new, affordable learning experiences and other capabilities to students, teachers and bus drivers across their school transportation system.

Available nationwide today, Connected Bus supports various technology-in-education initiatives in the U.S. by using wireless technology, AT&T's 4G LTE network and devices to increase students' access to information, instruction and teachers. Designed to perform on the move, Connected Bus provides new options for school districts to extend the school day from the time students board the school bus, until they arrive at home.  

The full release published by AT&T is available here.
