We have a whole new tool kit with Teams that we can use to do things we’d never considered before, and that opens up possibilities for our students and for our teachers that benefit everyone.

Casey Rimmer, Director of Innovation and EdTech, Union County Public Schools
I think that's what Teams does. It's amazing, because we think about how a conversation is carried today and how kids have conversations today.

We were just starting to dabble in Teams, so when we went remote, we turned around and said everyone is using Teams. Now we have teachers saying they will never abandon Microsoft Teams. They say, ‘I cannot imagine what I did before!’ and that has been essential for finding new ways of collaboration for the students.
