911
Just a reminder to all staff that you can call 911 from any phone in the district. It does take about 10 seconds for the call to connect. I know that could seem like forever in an emergency but it will connect.
Voice Mail Quick Refernece:
Clocks, Bells, Phones, etc.
If you have issues with Diode related items....Do Not contact Diode individually.
Chain of command:
Contact Building Custodian with your exact concern/problem
Custodian will contact Technology/ESU people
Ryan at ESU will contact Diode
If we do not follow this procedure, we get several billings, each with a standard service charge, rather than being able to save money by getting a lot of items lumped together to be fixed at one time.
