ALMA: Our Student Information System (SIS)

• Christie is the point person for ALMA. If you have any questions, feel free to email her at christie.brown@mc2school.org.

• On left hand side of home page, you will see all the tabs for the SIS. This is where you will find all information regarding students, parents, studios, attendance, etc.

QUESTIONS REGARDING HOW TO NAVIGATE ALMA:

1. If we put every "how to" task on how to navigate ALMA, we would no doubt wear you out! Luckily, ALMA has a "study guide" that answers most frequently asked questions and provides articles on how to do things that may seem confusing in ALMA.

2. TO GET TO STUDY GUIDE: Go to ALMA home page. In the top right hand corner you will see a small blue circle with your initials in it. After you click on your initials, you will see some tabs open up. Under MY PROFILE, you will see the STUDY GUIDE tab. There, you will find articles and how to's that will be SUPER useful. If you have a question that you would like to submit personally to the ALMA help desk, go to the STUDY GUIDE tab. On the bottom right, you will see a orange chat bubble. There, you can ask a direct question to their help desk. It will take a bit for them to answer you, but you WILL get an answer eventually.
