Schools still spend a lot of time managing everyday processes with paper forms, spreadsheets, and manual tracking. But who actually has time for that?
This session will show how tools many districts already have, including Google Sheets, Google Apps Script, and AI tools like ChatGPT, can automate common school workflows. Real examples from a K?12 district will be shared, including a digital hall pass system and a self-service Chromebook loaner tracking system.
We will walk through how these tools were built, how they connect within Google Workspace, and how AI can help generate and troubleshoot code along the way. No advanced programming experience is required.
Attendees will leave with practical ideas for small automations they can build to simplify processes and save time in their own schools.
