Our Middle School has 3 classes per grade with 25-29 students. Last September, the school started using ilearnnyc.net as its learning management system (LMS) with the expectation that all subject areas and teachers would use it. Parent workshops were held to introduce the new LMS and address parent requests like a single location to view grades and notifications of new grade items. Teacher workshops, both during prep periods and after school, helped teachers learn how to use the new ilearn LMS. Students also received instruction on how to use the LMS during technology classes.
