March Newsletter!

The March issue of Tech News is here! In this issue, the focus is on up-coming Professional Development to help teachers grow their technology skills and implementation. Highlights are Coding.org opportunities, summer Moodle Moot conference, and….a SE Idaho Google Summit coming to Pocatello this June!

We also want to remind teachers about setting up their Gradebooks for third trimester – and about the Messenger feature to communicate with parents. Resources for these are in Moodle (in the Technology Training course).
