Free Your Mind!

Let's get disconnected! Progressive relaxation and meditation will be offered in this session so that you can free your mind. This will be a tech free, quiet, peaceful zone for you to unwind as you see fit. Together, we will calm our minds and bodies as a form of self-care - you deserve it!

*Please bring a yoga mat, pillow, blanket, and/or comfy clothes! We will be stretching standing up and laying down on the floor.*

Leveraging Technology and Communications

We all know communication is one of the most important aspects of our job. However, sometimes we do not always have a plan or know how to leverage all of the resources at our disposal to leverage a more effective communication method that meets all of our stakeholders where they are.

This session will focus on how to use Parentsquare and other NISD technology to create a plan that gives you the teacher more flexibility with communication in a manner that more effictively can reach our learners and their caretakers.
