Serving Public School Districts, Private Schools, PA’s Intermediate Units, and K-12 Education
Keystone REN is a collaborative community of education, healthcare, economic development, libraries, government and public media organizations that utilizes the high-performance Research and Education Network. By offering essential services and exceptional member support, Keystone REN will help your district or school achieve its mission and goals through the ongoing discovery, application and transfer of new network technologies.
Keystone REN believes in the strength of a vibrant, collaborative educational community that can work with leading technology firms to address challenges of common interest for the common good.
