Hello!

I hope you are all continuing to do well. It's great to see all the hours coming in via the Tutoring Hours forms, thank you for all the work you are doing. Also, thank you for completing the new second section on the form, it is exciting to read what you and your students are accomplishing.

I noticed a few of you are still having problems with Zoom. I encourage you to seek out the Tech Help Desk on Thursdays. Walt and Cheryl are working regularly in Zoom and doing a lot of trouble shooting so they may be able to help you or point you in the right direction. Info on how and when to contact them is in the Tech Help Desk form. There is also a permanent link on the side bar in this blog for future reference.

I also wanted to let you know that in addition to the Class Materials on Google Drive most of the classes have weekly blogs where you can find more info. I know you are getting a lot in your inbox at the moment as we are in online mode, but please think about subscribing to your student's class blog:
