Additional Tips:

  • Connect to zoom outside of virtual. This will make for a more seamless connection and put less stress on our virtual environment.
  • Login 15 minutes early.
  • Turn on your camera! Using video helps everyone feel like they are in the same room and be more engaged - we have a lot of new faces to meet!
  • Please use speaker view for the duration of the Summit. This is the easiest way to see the speaker.
  • Limit multitasking and mute when you are listening (everyone will be muted when they join and we ask you to stay muted until the report back and networking portions of our day.)
  • Remember video conferencing etiquette.
  • Test your Tech! We know kids are remote learning and that's putting a strain on your wi-fi. Please test your tech so we can troubleshoot before the date of the Summit to make sure your experience is the best.
