THE COLLABORATIVES



There are five regional collaborative structures servicing the school districts in Rhode Island. The administrative offices vary according to the district; the focus of each collaborative is individual to that collaborative. Some share bidding and purchasing procedures, some share in teacher education programs, and some are strong in the technology arena. Find out what yours does for your district! The regions are:
