Regions

MCTLC serves all educational institutions in the state:  public, private, PK-12 and higher education.

MCTLC divides the state into regions which are roughly the same as the Department of Education's Regional Service Cooperatives.  Each region has a representative on the MCTLC Board.

MCTLC members belong to the region where their school is located (or residence if retired).  They may participate in any regional event throughout the state no matter where they teach or reside.
