AETN Becomes a Platinum Member

Arkansas Education Television Network has worked closely with AREA during the past year. They have presented at two conferences, provided assistance to the board, and provided valuable resources to teachers in member schools. They have seen the value of working with member schools and are supporting the organization through their Platinum Membership. Bryan Fields says,"The work with Arkansas Rural Education Association is beneficial to the teachers and administrators in member districts. The positive work brings better opportunities for the students in the state via AETN. Both organizations missions are being met through this positive relationship." We look forward to many years of growth together for the benefit of Arkansas children."
