ABOUT DIRECTV & EDUCATION

At DIRECTV, we are focused on K-12 education as the social issue where we can make the greatest impact, and we believe in bringing meaningful educational initiatives to classrooms in America through DIRECTV GOES TO SCHOOL. Last year, we aired an exclusive school assembly featuring Archbishop Desmond Tutu and jazz legend Herbie Hancock, and we will continue to enhance our program offering for teachers and students in the coming year. The SCHOOL CHOICE® programming package on DIRECTV GOES TO SCHOOL is available at no cost to accredited K-12 schools.
