Nitro-Type Tournament-Monday May 18th
Attention all interested, I will be hosting a live nitrotype tournament on Monday May 18th @ 10am for ALL of my students and any Explo teachers who want to participate.
If interested you need to complete the following things by Friday the 15th
  1. Create a free www.nitrotype.com account (follow family rules and expectations for creating accounts).
  2. Share your user name with me, just reply on to microsoft teams post and type it in, or email it to me.
