Learning, Growing, and Leading at VSTE 2024! 🎓💻
Some of our incredible Computer Resource Teachers and Instructional Technology Resource Teachers (ITRTs) recently attended the Virginia Society for Technology in Education (VSTE) Conference, the premier professional development and advocacy event for educators in Virginia. While at the conference, our team participated in sessions designed to enhance their skills and inspire innovative ways to integrate technology into education. They also joined a VSTE Certified Coach Meetup, proudly representing our division as all of our ITRTs are certified coaches! This conference embodies VSTE’s mission to promote excellence in education through emerging technologies, and our team is excited to bring these tools and strategies back to our schools. 💡✨
