Welcome to VILS!

Hi, I am Mrs. Ramstack and I am the VILS Coach at Yorba Middle School. I want to help you learn how to better use your Chromebook to access content for academic success. Please let me know if I can better help you learn to use your device more effectively. I can be reached at jramstack@orangeusd.org or in room 103 on campus.

Chromebook Notifications

Please READ your Chromebook Notifications!

Make sure you READ all the Chromebook Notification or pop-ups that come on your screen. If you skip them too often, your Chromebook can be locked. These notifications are usually EASY to fix, if you READ them.
