I have had a wonderful experience working with the Hpara Team from onboarding to implementation. Our integration specialist, Beth, knows how to be supportive and encouraging in our school’s use of Hāpara. I know she is waiting to help if needed. When teachers saw how their peers were using the Hāpara Teacher Dashboard to manage classroom behavior and instruction they were seeking me out to be included in the initial roll out. Hapara's video resource library made in-servicing new users fast, simple and differentiated for all types of teacher users and interest. I find the blog and newsletter contains helpful articles current to teaching throughout the year.
