Latham joins maaps colleagues at Social Media Seminar presented by Denterlein

 

We learned alongside maaps colleagues from all over the Commonwealth yesterday at a two-hour workshop on social media hosted by Melmark NE in Andover. At the Social Media Seminar (Part 2), three presenters from Denterlein – Peter Howe, Jayda Leder-Luis, and Alex Boonstra –  shared their Public Relations/Communications and Social/Digital Media expertise with several maaps-member schools. The interactive presentation focused on best practices (in the context of the needs of our ‘exceptional schools for exceptional children’) for sharing news, information, and events through social media platforms.

Thank you to maaps, Melmark NE, and Denterlein for an afternoon of professional development and peer networking! We’re always grateful for the opportunity to connect with other maaps-member schools – and to discuss how evolving technologies can help support our mission.
