Gear up for Breast Cancer Awareness Month! Sign up to lead your school or office fundraiser.

October is right around the corner, and that means it's time to launch our District's efforts to raise awareness ( and funds ) for breast cancer in the community. SCS schools and departments are encouraged to form fundraising walk teams to support the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk on Oct. 20. If you're interested in leading a walk team at your school or department , let us know here so we can equip you with resources, swag and info to make your team's fundraiser a success! Also, don't forget to start brainstorming unique ways to help your team win this year's Think Pink Contest to win a FREE lunch for your school or department.
We have a new & improved WiFi network! Check out these details to stay connected.

Our IT team has upgraded our WiFi network to help keep the District’s info more secure. Plus, they’ve made it a whole lot easier to log in! This fall, the old MCS_WLAN network will be shut off, so  log onto the new SCS_WLAN network now so you don’t lose access. The same network security provisions apply, such as restrictions on sites hosted outside the U.S., but here's a big plus – you no longer have to keep up with a separate password for WiFi! Just use your Active Directory ID, which is the same username and password as your email.  So

It's simple to log in:
 
  1. Select “SCS_WLAN” from the available networks in your device’s WiFi settings.
  2. Log in with your Active Directory ID.
  3. The first time you log in on a device, you will be asked to trust the certificate. Once you do, you won't be asked again.

*If you’re a Mac user,  there is one extra step. After completing the three steps above, you will see another pop-up window asking for a username and password. For this, you will enter the password for your actual device, not your email password. Once you do, you won’t see the popup again.
