I had the privilege last week to work alongside the amazing @enidpsu and @pamekren to deliver motivation and crucial information about TELPAS to EBs at @IrvingHigh! Amazing things happen when the @iisdbil_esl department comes together!

Our dept teamed with Data Governance, @iisdbil_esl , & @PFE_IISD to provide HAC training for our @IrvingISD families! Parents: ✅ Created/reset their accounts 📧 Checked and analyzed their sts’ grades and credits 🧑‍🏫 Learned how to email their teachers through HAC

Just a little coding and presentation at @netzeroJMS today. Huge shout out to @patrick_yates and his amazing students. They're coding, building robots, and working on their presentation skills! Change starts here.
