“Today’s Professional Development was an opportunity for our staff to further enhance their learning and mastery of Google and technology in the classroom,” said Assistant Superintendent for Personnel and Professional Development Michele Bowman. “It is so exciting to have our own teachers, administrators and Questar III staff facilitate training for their colleagues. This professional development is an example of true collaboration and a professional learning community.”
