High Plains Regional Education Cooperative (HPREC) is
located in Raton, New Mexico. HPREC is one of nine regional education
cooperatives in New Mexico and is responsible for regional education
services to eight school districts in Colfax, Union, and Harding
Counties. Using efficient delivery
strategies, HPREC saves school districts dollar by using a cooperative
system of sharing services and programs. HPREC provides two types of
services. First, HPREC provides services that are best managed on a
regional basis either because they are too costly for an individual
district to support, or because resources within a single district are
limited. Thus, HPREC provides quality professional development, support,
and services to member districts that may otherwise be cost prohibitive.
Secondly, HPREC provides professional development, program coordination,
and other services to other agencies, districts, and the New Mexico
Public Education Department, which secures additional funding to support
ongoing services to member districts.
