Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary School Files

At Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary, school principal, Yolanda Salazar-Meave strive to move to a digitized environment.  We created a school Google account because over the years there have been many changes to the web hosting services that the district has provided, and this was an alternative to having something stable that would not need to be changed year after year.  I collaborate with the administrative team to discuss ways to host the multitude of documents electronically. We began with lesson plans. We host all of our lesson plans on our HBG Google Drive.  Every teacher has a Google account and they upload their lessons to their Google Drive and share it with the HBG account.  The administrative staff no longer has to physically carry lesson plans home to be checked.  They simply log on to the HBG Account and they have access to all of the lesson plans that are to be checked for the week.  Lesson plans are share with Support Staff who access them to make sure the same lesson are being taught by them.

We host our faculty handbook on the Google Shared folder as well as all forms, calendars and Weekly Updates.  The Shared folder is even used to host a gallery of pictures and videos that are taken throughout the year. 
 We share the google-hosted video links through Class Dojo, so parents can view the latest happenings at Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary School or can get updated information about upcoming events.
