FLEXTIME MANAGER STUDENT TRAINING: FlexTime Manager (FTM) is a tool that can fully customize activity periods and schedules. This enables students’ voice and choice in their Enrichment period. Teachers can create activities, and students can select which activities to attend. In the beginning stages of implementation, BFA will use this tool as an Enrichment scheduler. Later, we will expand its use to include clubs, activities, and office hours.
BLUE Cohort: Training resources will be sent to your email on Monday morning, Dec 14th. You will go through the step-by-step instructions during enrichment.
