Regions in Tennessee
Though we are working on a state-wide initiative for OLPC in Tennessee, it may be more helpful to break-down Tennessee into 3 distinct regions, revolving around Tennessee's major cities and school districts.
- Western Tennessee/Mid-South (Memphis)
- Central Tennessee (Nashville)
- Eastern Tennessee (Knoxville)
