I want to share my calendar with students and teachers, but have only teachers add events.
Hi, I just purchased premium service to have my teachers add events, but would like to have the students see the calendar without having access to the ADD EVENT button. Is this possible and how?

Well, the point of the "anonymous Add Event" button on the public calendar is to let anyone add events smile

There are 2 possible solutions I can think of.
1) Remove the public Add Event button and just share your calendar's logon information with the teachers
2) Merge 2 calendars together. Create a new calendar (or use the one you already have) for the teachers to add events. Merge this calendar into a second calendar (which doesn't have the Add Event button) and show that one to your students.

With option 2, it's still pretty easy for your students to find out about the 2nd calendar and just go there and click Add Event (I mean, kids are so clever these days anyway). So removing the button and keeping the login information amongst the faculty is probably the safest option.
