    Can't get #akedchat to come up with recent tweets on my phone. :-(

    So sorry everyone. We had a death in the family on my wife’s side and this evening did not go as planned. #akedchat

    No worries. There are plenty of Mondays left in this school year. 😁 take care of your family...that is most important. We can reconvene next week! #akedchat

    Welcome back everyone. I can feel the excitement for the new year starting to bubble up here in Kodiak and across the state. I was hoping to take this first chat back and do a little planning/thinking about the year ahead and how #akedchat can work for all of us.

    A1: Robanne, K-12 Sped teacher in the Homer area. Did a lot of travel back and forth to Seattle this summer for husband's #kidneycancer so was able to do some touristy stuff compliments of @SeattleCCA and their guest services. #akedchat

    Greetings from Kodiak. I’m the new Federal Programs Director and still the Tech Director here. A personal goal I met this summer was camping with my 8 and 6 year old boys. We braved a windy rainy night on a mountain a few nights ago and had a blast! #akedchat

    Q2 How do you use #akedchat? Is it a PLC for you? A way to keep in touch? New ideas? What brings you back? #akedchat
