We recognize that video content can be a powerful educational tool. If you plan to use specific videos for instruction, we recommend downloading them in advance and playing them offline whenever possible.
Alternatively, platforms such as YouTube and the VUSD Plex Server are available for educational use. These services are optimized for classroom environments and place less demand on network bandwidth.
All media listed on the VUSD Plex Server is provided by the District. If you’re looking for specific content to support your curriculum, we’re here to help.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a stable and efficient network for everyone.
