Your Calendar, Email, and Planning Live in Three Different Worlds

Count your open tabs right now.
Google Calendar. Gmail. Google Classroom. Your SIS. That shared drive with unit plans.
Each one solves a problem. None of them talk to each other.
So you become the integration layer.
Copying. Pasting. Translating. Checking.
That's not teaching. That's data entry.
"You just need to get organized."
The truth: You are organized. Your tools aren't.
- Organization can't fix fundamental disconnection.
- No filing system compensates for systems that don't communicate.
- The friction isn't your fault. It's a design problem.
Telling teachers to "get organized" is like telling someone to organize water. The container is the problem.
"Context switching is just how modern work operates."
The truth: Context switching costs more than you think.
- Research shows it takes 23 minutes to refocus after an interruption.
- Every tab switch is a micro-interruption.
- By end of day, you've lost hours to mental friction—not actual work.
Modern work doesn't have to mean fragmented work.
"There's no alternative—every school uses different systems."
The truth: Integration exists. It just hasn't reached education yet.
- Businesses solved this problem years ago with integrated platforms.
- Healthcare connected their systems. Finance connected theirs.
- Education is behind—but catching up.
The alternative isn't fantasy. It's overdue.
What Integration Actually Means
- Your lesson plans, assessments, and calendar in one place.
- AI that pulls from curriculum you're actually teaching.
- Updates that flow—change one thing, everything reflects it.
- One login. One system. One source of truth.
That's Lamppost.
Google Classroom integration. BC curriculum AI. Everything connected.
Because your job is teaching, not tab management.
Onward and upward,
