A new wave of educational tools has flowed into Sarasota County School District middle schools in the name of TechActive Classrooms of Tomorrow. Fifty COTs have been installed in each middle school in the district.
The grand opening of the classrooms was held Sept. 25 at Venice Middle School with a real-time simulcast fed to seven other middle schools: Booker, Brookside, Heron Creek, Laurel Nokomis, McIntosh, Sarasota and Woodland.
