Fife Schools Technology

Each summer, our tech team works hard to perform needed maintenance on our computer systems and to make preparations for the coming school year.

Staff members, we need your help as we plan our summer tasks.

Please provide us with some information regarding changes and needs for the coming fall by filling out a brief survey.

The link to the survey was sent via email to all staff.

To start the survey, click on the “Respond to this Survey” Link on the webpage.

Let us know if you have problems accessing or completing the survey.

Note that if you do not give us info via the survey, any tech support requests for the fall will be given lower priority over those requests submitted to us ahead of time via the survey.

In addition to the survey, please take care of the following before you leave for the summer:

· Clear away any items around computers in your classroom. We will be performing maintenance and need access without having to disturb your things.

· Safely store your projector and document camera. The best place may be a cupboard where it is safe and dust free.

· If you move any furniture, please do not block access to your computer(s).

· Delete old emails so that your mailbox doesn’t fill up over the summer.

· Delete old files from your documents folder.

Let us know if you have any questions and thanks for helping us to help you.

Here is a phone tip for staff using district phones. If something doesn’t seem right about your phone such as calls going straight to your voicemail without ringing, give this a try:

Press the pound key four times (i.e. ####). That will reset your phone to the default settings.

Sometimes a phone may accidentally be set to the ”do not disturb” or “forward” settings and you may not know it. Pressing the pound key four times is an easy potential fix before asking for more help.
