on our minds
y'all we can't get enough of texas
this summer we’re thrilled to team up with two more new districts in texas. we’re supporting the district leadership team in temple independent school district to refine a district-wide vision and support plan for blended learning. and we’ve partnered with botello elementary in dallas independent school district to design and launch personalized learning across all classrooms in their school this year.
for everyone who left their hearts in san francisco last may
