Week 4

Robert S. Hyer Elementary has a blog page designed by the principal, Greg Smith. He uses the blog to announce important information to the teachers, students, and parents. He has videos of programs they held at school, so the assembly can be viewed even if the you were not available to be there. He announces important dates, in which allows parents to say informed of what is going on. He also has links to other web pages that may offer valuable school related information. Many parents/teachers comment on the blogs, in which allows them to be apart of the happenings at the school. I believe that this is a great idea and in fact a great blog that keeps the whole school up to date with what is going on. Check it out!! http://hyerprincipal.blogspot.com/

George Hall Elementary is located right here in the Maysville community in downtown Mobile, Alabama. The technology group of the school started a website, in which it also offers a blog. It allows parents, teachers, students, and the community to stay connected with all the school happenings. It is dedicated to the student work on grade level field trips, but is not limited to just that. I believe that this school has a great idea, in which it had many comments from parents. It in fact keeps everyone outside of the school involved. It is broken down by grade level. Each grade level has valuable information about what that class is doing. The only thing that I believe that could improve was there was not any pictures, but this school is really “on top” of things. It is a great blog! http://georgehall.wetpaint.com/
