Message regarding Materials/Assets
Please be advised that no district assets should be disposed of including textbooks until you receive additional directions from the finance office. It has come to the attention of District Administration that some staff have been contemplating selling texts. This cannot occur without permission. A process and procedure for disposal will be outlined by the finance office. Thanks for your attention to this matter.
Message from District Tech Team
Since the transition to Google back in 2014, utilization of this service has steadily declined. Faced with budgetary constraints associated with maintaining the servers to store and backup this data, the time has come to complete the transition to GoogleDrive.
Teachers should take the time from now until the end of the year to migrate any files you wish to keep from your H drive to your GoogleDrive. Depending on the amount of data you wish to keep, this can take some time.
Here is a video detailing how to make this move.

User Google accounts have unlimited storage capacity and teachers will now have anytime access to these files, something we could not provide before.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.
