We hope you found last week’s Tools to Talk panel discussion informative and useful. We are always looking to develop programming that our parent, teacher, and student community can employ. To that end, if you have a minute and can share your thoughts, we’d appreciate it: https://forms.gle/g3qKAKPHqU2n3fPt9.
