Technology Tidbits
- Good to know...most apps on Classlink (Dreambox, MyOn, etc) are set up through IC roster. If you have a new student it does take a day or two to connect.
- Junk and Block spam email directions
- Courses will be merged in ItsLearning for homeroom teachers on 8/16.
- Keep the Dreambox letters. We hope it have it back for students the week of August 19th.
