Back to School Edition
Lots of updates!
Teams and Synergy Sync
- Navigate to a team and select Activate.
- Select Activate again to confirm that you'd like your students to access the team.
This new School Data Sync process will enable us to have grade writeback from Microsoft Teams assignments, and hope to have that deployed everywhere in the month of October. We will be testing grade write back with some classrooms in the month of September.

Surface Pro - Tips and Tricks: 3 Ways to take a screenshot (I know there are more...)
#1
This method is useful when you are using your Surface in a tablet mode without connecting to the type cover. To take a screenshot on Surface Pro using hardware buttons, do the following steps:
- Press and hold the Power button.
- While you hold down the Power button, press and release the Volume Up button on the side of the device.
The screen will dim and back to bright again to let you know, a screenshot is recorded.
NOTE: All screenshots you took with this method, will be saved in a folder named Screenshots under Pictures library.
On your Surface Type Cover attached, you can follow the traditional ways to take screenshots by using the dedicated PrtSn (Print Screen) key on the keyboard. To do so.
Option 1: Capturing all entire screens and store in the Windows Clipboard.
Unless you have already programmed your pen to do a different task, you can take a screenshot by using the Surface Pen with this function. To activate the screen sketch function
- Double-click the eraser button on the top of your Surface Pen.
- Now you can edit, crop, and save the screenshot by click on the “Save as” button on the top right of the screen.
