G-Metrix an opportunity

Students at Carter are wasting resources that have been provided by the district.

G-Metrix is a program that has been given to the Business Information Management (BIM) classes by the district of La Joya.

BIM teacher Yesenia Torres said, ” G-Metrix is an application where student practice skills they learn in Microsoft office.”

Microsoft Office is a gathering of software created by Microsoft that we use in our everyday lives.

Yesenia Torres was later questioned about whether Carter students are taking advantage of the program, she said, “Fifty percent of students truly take advantage of the free training available to them.”
