REC Brightens the Future for Local Students
Thursday | December 10, 2020

REC is a strong advocate for STEM education activities and programs. To help the fourth grade students of Essex Intermediate School learn about electricity, REC sponsored the purchase of a science kit for each student.


To help students interactively learn about electricity for their science SOL, each fourth grade student will receive a Magnetism Kit and an Electric Circuit Board Kit. 


“REC is making the future brighter for our scholars and we thank the Cooperative for the partnership in moving our students forward on the path of excellence,” said Ms. Calhoun, principal of Essex Intermediate School.
