Organize Your Classroom Library --> Increase Student Engagement

Plus, teachers can engage with students more easily by directing reading choices depending on their individual needs and goals.

steamlining After-Hours Events in independent schools:
The power of event management solutions
By Brad Hunter, OperationsHero
"November 5, 2024, will be a very important day in U.S. history. Voters in the United States will go to the polls to cast ballots in elections on the federal, state, and local levels—including for president and Congress—and, in doing so, will help decide the nation’s future. Even before then, voters will choose the party nominees through the primary and caucus contests that will get under way in early 2024."

Let's delve into why spring cleaning is crucial for independent schools and how the MISBO consortium partners can help you complete your spring checklists.
