Jonathan Endecott

wanted to be a normal kid

again, to get back to class

and his friends. But the

9-year-old New Mexico

boy didn’t know quite

how because of the

darned coronavirus.

His school in Roswell is

closed and switched to re-

mote learning, but his

mother, Angel Endecott,

couldn’t afford their Inter-

net bill after she lost both

of her jobs.

“He was like, ‘Yeah, I

need to be back on the

school property, and I

could be like a normal kid

again,’ ” she told CNN.

So Mom suggested her

son get a move on — walk

to his school building and

connect with the Wi-Fi

there.

Endecott didn’t have any

qualms about the jaunt be-

cause Jonathan had walked

the few blocks every day

last year. So he walked to

school, where he sat —

sometimes lying down —

outside the front door.

“Him just being outside

of the building gives him

that, ‘Hey, I’m at school’

feeling even though he’s

not around other class-

mates or teachers,” she

told CNN.

Seeing Jonathan broke

educator Sabrina Talbott

Harbour’s heart. She shared

a picture of him online.

“This young boy has no

Internet at his home,”

Harbour wrote. “He has

been getting up and walk-

ing to school every day to

connect to the school

Wi-Fi from outside the

school. He sits there every

day from 8:00-2:45.”

She went on: “This isn’t

ok. The kids will be better

off in school.”

After the story went pub-

lic, someone paid the fam-

ily’s Internet bill for a year.

school ‘wi’ find

sad sight: Jonathan Endecott, 9, of Roswell, NM,

lies outside his school building — so he can use the

site’s Internet access, which his mother couldn’t afford.
