The REC has a site located in room 302A. The REC also has an MCU, which has the capability of connecting all of the sites together.

We will be having our first videoconference Thursday, September 8, at 10:15, when we will be meeting with representatives from each site to discuss the Transition Videoconference trainings that we will be offering during the school year.

Please share the information with your staffs, so that we may begin using the units creatively for the students in our districts.
