PES Integrates Virtual Reality into Classroom Instruction

Hands-On, Real World Learning...Without Leaving the Classroom!

Patricksburg Elementary School recently received a set of 30 Class VR headsets to supplement classroom instruction. Thanks to Regional Opportunity Initiatives and the S-OCS Ready Schools Grant, PES staff members chose to use their Innovative and Interactive Funding to purchase virtual reality headsets.

PES staff members recently completed their Class VR training and are eager to support their face-to-face instruction and create learning accessibility through immersive technology.
