The whiteboard is truly important. As an educator at a site with an old, outdated public website, I can relate to the public face of your school featuring the faces of those you've never met.

This is something that all schools need to figure out how to use. Good Job.

We're contemplating getting a few interactive whiteboards, too, so it was interesting to see how they are being used at Excelsior.
