Google After Hours Update

So far, about 75 of our teachers, administrators, and other staff have attending training through our Google After Hours sessions. Many people have even attended multiple trainings. This is amazing considering we have only completed 6 of over 30 offerings this semester. If you haven't had a chance to attend, you can sign up using the staff development portal. The teachers who have attended so far have given very positive feedback on the experience. Remember, follow-up coaching sessions to help with technology integration within your curriculum are also available. See below for details.
