“We didn’t see a lot of gaps in learning, and with the movement being so frequent—with some of our learners going back and forth—it allows them to still have that consistency.”

“With PARCC and Common Core, they talk about interactive essays where you have pictures and multimedia. As [students] started working on their interactive essays, it seemed less like a Word doc and more like a web page. So we did individual WikiProjects and they each had their own space to put their pictures and writing.”

"Naviance CCLR is what I like to call [the teachers’] safety net. They know the road map for students of what they're going accomplish in career explorations, and then with Naviance CCLR they're adding in the extra stuff, the enrichment pieces."

“Schoology has become the launching pad that has helped make our transitions successful.”

“Everybody is having a hard time with remote learning. Have a little grace.”

“(PowerSchool enrollment) has helped us conduct e-registration so that we limit our contact and parents contact and everyone can stay safe.”

“In our Elementary buildings, Schoology courses are set up in a very consistent way. The structure is the same, the folder system is the same and the color-coding is the same.”

“It’s a one-stop-shop that has made not coming back face-to-face a lot easier. Teachers are able to communicate with students and parents anytime they want. They use collaborative documents. All of the information and data and resources are all in one area.”

“Consistency is the key for organization.”

“It’s really important to have data interoperability when you’re vetting systems. You have to make sure solutions and the exchange of data are secure, that your students, parents, and your teachers are going to access one platform, and that the platform can speak to all the applications. We want to get away from everyone having separate, disparate systems that become a nightmare to manage. We want consolidation and one point of entry, and also security. I think it’s important moving forward for us to follow those standards of data privacy and security.”

“Schoology is a great way to add interactivity to your training videos as you’re finding ways to get new staff on board with devices and services.”

“My favorite thing that I didn’t think my learners could do was upload items to the evidence folder. It’s nice to be able to go all the way back to week one and look at their progress until now.”

“I have to be honest. I used to like email better, but I have fallen in love with the discussion board because everything is all in one place. We can carry on a conversation and see the thread rather than back and forth emails.”

"This (Schoology) solved a big problem we used to have – having a big long line of students waiting for us with our red pen trying to give feedback on the spot. This has been an awesome way to get students moving quickly through things."

“All the access is right in here, no extra sharing or extra steps – I love that ease.”
