Agendas and notes for your departments in G Classroom
For any older notes that I could find in my drive, I moved them into your departments' classrooms. Instead of using a Google doc, let's use an assignment for each meeting agenda. That way, we can add info or comment directly from the assignment, and we won't have to click into a document. files I might have found are now in your classroom folder if you'd like to refer to them.

A wonderfully produced video, worthy of an Emmy.
Volunteers Needed for Wine Country Dog Show

The Lions Club gets paid per volunteer, and that money goes into Lions activities. This represents almost 40% of the Lions budget. Any help would be appreciated.

Tech Tip from Denny:
Removing Type-ahead names from the e-mail address line
New to me solution for removing the names that come up in the address field automaticcaly that we may not want.
If you've ever sent a message to a wrong address, the wrong address then starts appearing in your To: list when you use the "Type-ahead" feature. Same thing when a name changes, or a person's e-mail address changes.
This can be corrected in iNotes (webmail) Preferences => Basic => TypeAhead by selecting the address(es) you don't want and clicking Remove.

One could choose to check the box to "disable Type-ahead for all name fields." Most users probably won't choose to do that, although names that are in the South Seneca directory would still be found with just a few letters.
From Tim:
Another thing to avoid the issue (happens to me a lot) is to start by typing in the last name. That way, when I want to send something to Karen Sanchez vs. Karen Denmark, I won't have the problem.
Note on tech tips like the one above:
I put several labels on this post, one being "tech tips." As I post more, you can search this wonderful blog by tech tips or any other label I've made.
