Step 4: Adding Additional Events to your Schoology Calendar

2. When adding events to the Google Classroom Calendar, make sure you are assigning the event to the correct calendar, and not your own personal calendar.

1. Once the new event is saved to your Google Calendar, the contacts associated with the connected ReachWell Group will see that event.
