  1. TROY TECH TALKS • Initiated last school year by parents & TSD staff as a way to help each other learn, keep up with technology that our students utilize and create a common message about how technology is best used in the classroom & at home. • This is a SPECIAL EDITION of T3.

Feedback and suggestions always welcome. • Time permitting, each session will conclude with Q&A & sharing time.
