Is there any way to get the at home events emailed to us. Creative writing, ready writing, maps, graphs and charts, mathematics, calculator, science. It is just easier to email those to our other districts. Or is it ok to scan those test in and email to our neighboring districts? I sent an email two weeks ago but haven't heard a response. Thanks |
