Top 5 Reasons to Use Google Drive
- Access your files anytime, anywhere, on any device
- Share your files with students or among colleagues
- Determine access levels (private, those with the link can view, those with the link can edit)
- The document is always the most updated version - no more emailing updates or finding that you have an older version of a document
- It is free (and secure) - even NASA uses Google Drive.
First: Set up Google Drive to automatically convert your files
- Click on the "Settings" button > "Upload settings"
- Select "Convert uploaded files to Google Docs format"
Upload files - one at a time, or all at once
- Go to drive.google.com.
- On the left, click New.

I love BHS! I've been teaching at BHS since about 2010. Before coming to BHS I was a middle and high school English teacher and a tutor for many content areas.
I have a Bachelors Degree in English Writing and Communications from SUNY Potsdam, a Masters Degree in Teaching for Secondary English Education from SUNY Albany, and a Masters of Library Science from Southern Connecticut State University.

Kathy Malatesta, Library Media Specialist
I am thrilled to be teaching in the BHS Library Learning Commons team! Prior to BHS, I was the Teacher Librarian at Bethel Middle School for 8 years and a classroom teacher for 9 years prior to that.
I hold a BS in Education from Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia and a Master of Library Science degree from Southern Connecticut State University.
My husband and I live in Bethel with our husky/shepherd rescue pup. Our older daughter is an electrical engineer living in New Jersey; our younger daughter is an industrial designer living in Brooklyn.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading (good thing!), photography, and genealogy.
