From Word application, here is how you can print double sided in back and white color:

1. Start printing from word File Menu >> Print

2. The printing setup window will open. Click on “Copies & Pages” to see more options and open “Layout”

3. On the “Layout” page, turn on “Two-Sided” by choosing the way you want: “Long-Edge Binding” or “Short-Edge binding”. Now if you click on “Print” button you can print double sided.

If you want to print in black and white, here is how: 

1. Start printing and from the printing setup window, click on “Layout”, find and open “Printer Feature” which is at the bottom of the list.

2. Find the “Color Mode” from the “Printer Feature” window. Switch to “Black and White” color mode.  Print in Black and White, and save your printing money in your card.

Save all your print setting and quickly get it next time:

1. Find the “Presets” from the printing setup window. It is usually under the printer.

2. Save your printing settings. Next time, if you want to use the same settings again, you can get it all from “Presets”

Q: Why does my schedule say that my homeroom teacher is my Humanities teacher?

A: You are in two groups. One is your advisory, led by your advisor (duh!). The second is your “Study Group,” which is the group of people you see in your Humanities, PE, and some other classes (AKA: 6B or 10A, etc.). Veracross says your HR teacher is the Humanities teacher of your study group. This is basically a tiny glitch we cannot work around (yet). Think of it this way: You have at least two people who love you!

Q: Do I need to know which “Study Group” I’m in (6B, 10A, etc.)? 

A: YES! This is how we will line up at fire drills!

Q: Why do Grades 7-9 have one random, unscheduled blank in their schedules?

A: This is not random at all; it’s “Life 101” (formerly known as Lifeskills). Why is it blank? Who knows? Will is stay blank? Maybe. Does it matter (because you now totally get that this is your “Life 101” block)? Not really.

Keep those questions coming!

Each week’s school bell is a 15 – 20 second song clip that is chosen by a different homeroom and advisory group. Classes that choose to submit a bell will hear their clip sometime in the upcoming 36 school weeks. If there aren’t enough bells submitted, then individual / teacher bells are also accepted. If your class would like to submit a bell, please drop it onto the server at the following address:

Studentlargestorage / Music / School Bells.
Name your file like this: ClassName – Title – Artist.mp3

Here’s some rules / advice:

1. All lyrics must be appropriate.
2.The file should be high quality (not taken from a crackly YouTube video, e.g.)
3. The file must not have a GarageBand metronome ticking in the background. (If you need help turning it off, then please see Miss Keus)
4. The song must be less than 20 seconds long (15 seconds is preferred).

You can see when your video will be played, or find the name of the current week’s song, at the following link.

For more information, please see Miss Keus.
