Connector Certification
from Lindsey Schneider
The Connector is an online platform where teachers can attend live chat sessions with professionals and also schedule personalized discussions with their classes. It’s great for advisory, counseling, soft skills development, project-based learning, career exploration, content discoveries, and more! Last year teachers at Arrowhead, Eisenhower, and Coronado Middle Schools were able to bring the Connector to so many students in really unique and thoughtful ways!
All KCK middle and high school teachers have unlimited access to the Connector for the 2019-20 school year! For additional information about the Connector please go to: https://prepkc.nepris.com/home/v4
