More tools to support a digital classroom

First and foremost the Ed Tech team would like to welcome back all staff and students to the 2020-2021 school year. 
This will be a year of many firsts, and we look forward to navigating alongside each and every one of you.  
With all of the unknowns, we wanted to help make your jobs a little easier. 
We heard your feedback from the spring and now have even more digital tools to help make the digital classroom a better space.
