Nov. 4, 2022

The Los Gatos Union School District (LGUSD) recently joined forces with Sched, an event management software, to deliver its Professional Development Days.

Rhonda Beasley, the district’s Director of Curriculum, Instruction & Assessment said, “Sched is easy to use and saves me a lot of time, which has a quantifiable financial impact on my organization. I can’t tell you how freeing it was to abandon the spreadsheets and use a program that’s exclusively designed around all aspects of planning a great event.”

“Our teachers loved how Sched increased the professionalism of the event, giving our Professional Development Day more credibility and making teachers feel like they are valued professionals in their district.”

Today, the district serves approximately 2,650 students from transitional kindergarten through to eighth grade students. With the help of Sched, LGUSD devised a program centered around social and emotional learning, literacy, equality, creativity, project-based learning, technology, and the district's data system.

Marvin McTaw, CEO at Sched, said, “We’re thrilled to support the Los Gatos Union School District and their teachers with their Professional Development events. Our core mission at Sched is to make the world a bit of a better place by bringing people together via exceptional events. It’s an honor to contribute to enriching the district’s teaching and improving student learning”.
