Does @schoolspring have a way for someone to ask a question about accounts? I am in a vicious circle that sends me to PowerSchool Community with seemingly no way to submit a question about the School Spring product.

We all know there is more to teaching than content & schedules. New educators (regardlessof prior experience) participate in 3 wks. of orientation @hightechhigh. Building collaborative communities takes time. @RowFn @CRISOLguerra @gschillinger1

.@TheJR just arrived in San Diego. Wonder how a ship this big makes it to port so smoothly? This time-lapse video represents ~30 minutes in real time. This is the end of #EXP385T and #EXP385 will begin shortly. #NSFFunded @NSF_GEO

Used the 5 E’s (Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend, Evaluate) as a pedagogy for exploring the properties of water @Birch_Aquarium w/ Sarah and Cari. The #SOR2019 challenge... will ice melt in salt or fresh water faster? @RowFn @VTEducation @RHSDawnAdams

#SOR2019 benefited from a tour thru the Eocene w/ @SDNHM paleontologist Tom Deméré. A Brontothere jaw bone w/ teeth helped us determine age & diet of the animal. More clues to the environment of Southern CA 50 mya. @TheJR #RutlandHS @RHSDawnAdams
During #SOR2019 @rutlandflag visits Torrey Pines State Beach. This amazing crossbedding (diagonal beds in layers) is the backside of dunes from the Eocene (45 mya). We are pointing in the direction of movement. @VTEducation @calparks @SeafloorSci
