Copy Link Students at Rudsdale Newcomer High School in Oakland, before the pandemic shut down in-person learning. The school was designed for recent immigrant students, and Rudsdale has seen an uptick in enrollment since it moved online, giving working students like 'Ana' greater flexibility.

Outside whichever house she’s cleaning that day, she’ll get into the parked car. After opening her Chromebook, she'll connect her hotspot and join her high school classmates on Zoom.
