Server Orientation

Due to the server upgrade (10.5) made over the winter break, all the Middle School students visited the lab during the first week of the semester in order to familiarize themselves with the new login procedures and to change their passwords. Now students can log in to a much more secure environment, that includes all their preferences and bookmarks, as well as their documents folder. This lesson took one class period to complete.
