Frequently asked questions

What is a Learning Management System (LMS)?

A learning management system (LMS) provides a teacher with a way to create and deliver content, monitor student participation, and assess student performance. It also provides students with a way to send and receive information back and forth to the teacher as well interactive features, such as threaded discussions, online quizzes, video conferencing and discussion forums. In Mineola, we use several systems. Our PK-2 buildings use SeeSaw, Jackson Avenue uses Empower, the Middle School uses Empower in the 5th grade and Google Classroom in 6th and 7th Grades. In the high school, we use Canvas as well as Empower in our Synergy Program.
