You asked and we listened, we were asked if we could hold Virtual ParentCamp at another time of the day.  Sometimes, evenings are hard for people to attend.  We will be holding a few Virtual ParentCamps this school year at noon ET/ 9 am PT.  We would love to hear your feedback at how this time of day works for you.  We are trying to be cognizant of all the time zones people join us from, which there are a lot!  We hope you have taken advantage of joining us…
