Staff Photos on the Web Site
Please visit and check to be sure your name and email are spelled correctly. I have already discovered some mistakes that I have made.
I do not have the pictures done at retakes yet, but I will get those loaded as soon as I have them.
Per Mr. Duce, we will not be changing photos. If you don't like your photo or need one taken, put SEPTEMBER 24 on your calendar! That is when the photogs will be back on campus for one last chance! (And that is Forthcoming week, so take that into consideration if you dress up for Tropical Tuesday!)
Tech Help for Students
There is a new web site coming for parents and students where they can find help on Canvas, HAC, Bulb, etc. It should be live next week and I will share the URL with you when it comes online. For now, resources like the troubleshooting guide can be found on the Resources page of our web site.
The new trick kids have learned- and how to fix it
If you have kids who cannot log in because "No servers are available", then this is most likely the cause. To check, in the bottom right corner of the screen, if you see an airplane, the computer is in airplane mode.
Fix it by clicking the blue function button in the bottom left corner at the same time as the print screen key (it has a blue wireless icon printed on it)
