Tech and Innovation Coaches
J Roger Hay
The J is silent.
Roger is enjoying his fourth year as one of GBSD's Innovation Coaches alongside Elizabeth.
Whenever secondary level classroom teachers need a different angle integrating tech and content, he's there. Have an app question? Yup: Roger. Wondering how green screens apply to your middle-school class? Roger again. Need campus PD on new equipment roll-out? Check. Need a small loan? not Roger. That's J. And he doesn't answer his phone.
