Zoom Meetings for Religious Ed Students, Grades 6 - 8
How is at-home learning going? If you're finding it to be somewhat of a struggle to keep up with your religoius ed materials, that's okay! A few times this Spring, you can zoom-in to a virtual meeting with your religoius ed class to discuss the material, ask questions, and just hang out with one another!
