Doerre Reminders
- Please make sure when you are composing or forwarding an email that you include "KISD" in the subject box. #notSPAM
- To help students with organization, always include accurate due dates on your Schoology assignments and tests to let students and parents know what's taking place in your class. This feature places the "assignment" on the course calendar and includes information in the Upcoming and Overdue sections on the Schoology home page. #nomorelatework
