Google Meets Use Next Year

 While we look ahead to next year, we have been researching the security features on zoom.   Unfortunately, zoom has not continued the higher levels of security needed to protect our students and staff.  Therefore, we will be shifting our asynchronous meetings and class sessions to google meets.  We do know this will be a transition, but we also hope to not be using online learning platforms as much next year as we have had to this year.  Over the summer we will be putting together for you all the key uses of google meets, tips for setting up a session, and sharing updates with all staff so you are well-prepared to use google meets next year.  Thank you for your understanding on this shift.

LEARN Platform

Based on new legislation, starting next year we will need to only use approved applications with students.  If any students information is entered in the learning application, we will need to have a privacy agreement on  file.  The process in which to review what has been approved, as well as request an application is through the LEARN platform.  Please see this google slide session on the process for review, request and entry into the system.  Please let us know if you have any questions at all.
