Schoology is a slam dunk!!!

I arrived in this school district to find that they did not have a Learning Management System. I have experience with a handful of other companies, and knew that in order to achieve the goals we have, that a strong LMS would be a vital component of our program. I looked at a handful of companies but quickly knew that Schoology was the right choice for Salem. First, it is aligns with Standards Based Practices which Salem is adopting K-12. Secondly, the user interface is very easy to understand and use. Other reasons were the strong mobile apps, the LTI integrations with apps such as Nearpod, CK-12 and others, and the Google Drive integration. We began a pilot program in the spring of 2018 and purchased the Enterprise district level program in the summer. We now have almost 1000 students and over 200 staff using it daily, and are also leveraging it to support our new teacher induction program and other professional development programs over the summer.
