Applies ToMicrosoft Teams for Education

Staff teams allow school administrators and educators to easily share information and work together on school-wide initiatives.

With integrated OneNote Staff Notebooks, the staff can publish school policies for the whole team to access or create individual professional development plans. Staff leaders are team owners and add or remove staff members from the team.
