Teachers –
Here are a list of technology-related options available to you to continue contact with your students while the District is closed.
Please keep in mind these two important points:
1. Not all of our students have access to technology.
2. The resource demands for audio/video can quickly exceed capacity (you or your student’s home internet connection may not be able to handle video conferencing).
We can help with any of these, just ask.
Video conferencing is available through Google Meet, it is free and effectively unlimited. We recommend it instead of Zoom or other platforms. This is listed below as well, but is the most popular question we are getting.
