Family Technology Training

Learning new things can be hard. We want to help make it a little easier for you.

Throughout the school year, we will hold Family Technology Training sessions for parents and their students.

We will show you some of the features our public website offers, some of the technology tools that your children are learning, and how you can help them be successful.

Bring your child’s district issued device and attend an interactive session where you will learn how to use OneNote—see the class notebook and know what was assigned that day—and Office 365, how your student can save all their work to be accessed from any computer. We will also demonstrate some of the other technology tools we use in Manteca Unified School District.

Sessions will be held on the following Tuesdays, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. There will be a special session Saturday, September 19th from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m.
