Online Educator Support Pieces

The included educator support pieces elevate the program's effectiveness without adding more work for busy teachers. That is why we created Green.schoolspecialty.com, a website where educators can download support pieces.

• Quarterly educator newsletters: These newsletters provide information and tips to administrators and educators about the resources available and how to utilize them effectively. Delivered four times per year: August, October, January and March.

All this support adds additional value and helps educators get the most from the Green planner program.
