Teaching remotely is difficult, especially with only a small computer screen of about 13 inches to both see students and share learning materials.
Ember Dortch, a computer studies teacher at Garden City High School, said she didn t realize how much difference a second computer screen could make until she got one. I had to have Zoom open in one window and then my attendance in another window and I had to view several different things and they were really tiny, and my eyes are getting old, so it was difficult for me to see everything I needed to see, she said. The difference has been amazing.

Changes were approved for the Athletics/Activities District Plan on Dec. 17 at the Garden City Unified School District 457 Board of Education meeting.
The board approved the changes 7-1, with board member Jennifer Standley dissenting.
The changes allow for activities and athletics for grades seven through 12 to follow the District Level baseline for activities and competitions and practices.
Drew Thon, Garden City High School athletic director and assistant principal, said the reasoning behind this was for equity, to allow everybody to be on the same page as far as activities, athletics and practice.
