Re: Emergency Contact Systems for Parents

Tom:

Wow! Thank you for the information. The fact that School Messenger ASP
Plus integrates well with your database is nice. Wonder if it is
limited to just Senior Systems or not. I agree that we don't want
parents to have to log in to another system to keep their information
up-to-date. Presently they login to our website to update their data.

Thanks again!

Jeff

Re: Projector question

Not a magic button but these things have small batteries that hold the
memory in them. Open it up take out the battery wait for 10 minuets or
so and it will forget everything it ever knew and go back to the
factory default.

Projector question

For the second time in two weeks I have replaced the lamp in an
InFocus LP640(cousin of the ASKProxima C180) only to have the lamp
not strike. Tech support concluded (after trying some lamp counter
reset button pushes) that the unit needs service. It is 6 months past
the three year warranty . At a minimum it would cost $390 which we
are not going to do. Two questions:

(1) Has anyone else suffered this same lamp goes/projector goes
issue ? I spoke to the tech folks at the AV company we use and they
told me of a power supply issue.

(2) I wonder if there is a magic button push combination that resets
the power management ? Yes, wishful thinking.

BTW: I am replacing the InFocus/ASK Proxima units with Sanyo XU87 &
XU84 projectors.

Re: Emergency Contact Systems for Parents

Jeff,

Elmwood Franklin is using School Messenger ASP Plus.

Support has been terrific. They worked with us to set up the automatic
nightly update which connects with our Senior Systems database and it
works perfectly. Any name, phone or email address changes entered into
Senior Systems today, will be updated into the School Messenger program
tonight. We feel that makes the alert system as up to date as possible and
doesn't involve any additional work by a member of our school staff.
Parents let us know when there's a change in phone number or email address
and that change is made by one person in Senior Systems and the change of
information is carried over automatically to School Messenger.

We've done some testing with the entire school list and are pleased with
the speed at which the calls are made and emails are sent out. Reports are
detailed.

As I write this, our Head is sending out an email to our parents regarding
MRSA. He thought sending this information via email would be timely and a
good use for our new School Messenger system. Families without email
addresses in our system will be mailed the same information.

We also carefully looked at Instant Alert and National Notification
Network (3N) and decided that School Messenger provides us with all of the
features we really need. We felt that is is important for the school to
have control over the numbers and addresses rather than having parents log
in to the system and have the control. That could be a good feature for
some schools but Elmwood Franklin is able to manage the phone numbers and
email addresses in-house using our existing SIS with no additional effort.
We know that there is current, accurate contact information in our alert
system and don't have to rely on parents to take the initiative to make
changes.

So far School Messenger is doing all that they said they would do and very
pleasantly.

Re: Vacant campuses

From what I remember the number of people that can be on that property was
limited due to issues with the septic system. It's a beautiful property and
has some nice buildings on it. It's much smaller than Northfield.

Re: Vacant campuses

Northfield looks like the right kind of campus. It also has the
advantage of a nearby existing school. I have forward all of these
suggestions along and welcome others as well. I but the messenger here
offering my help.

The idea is for a private secondary school based on the principles of
the LDS (Mormon) Church but not a formal church school. Similar to
Southern Virginia University but on a secondary level.

Many LDS families in the northeast would like to have such a school as
they often find that their child is the only LDS student in school and
it is hard for them to maintain religious education in such a setting.

Such students are not well served in traditional "Christian" schools
due to the hostile reception their religion receives at many of these
schools and the fact that the LDS reject such notions as creationism
as part of a formal science curriculum for example.

Traditional preparatory schools, such as what I went to Oak Grove-
Coburn 1976, work but again the students often find themselves the
only Latter-day Saint in school and religious instruction can be
difficult in such a setting.

It is felt there there may be an opening for a school that while
reenforcing the values that the LDS faith promotes does not rejecting
traditional academic disciplines replacing them with religious dogma.
Such approach is common in evangelical christian schools and is not
part of the traditional LDS approach to education.

It is felt that an LDS school might find a market even with some non-
LDS students. Religious instruction both LDS and non-sectarian would
be given but separate from the traditional academic disciplines.
Similar to the way BYU and SVU keep their religion departments at arms
length from the other academic areas.

Hence the need for a campus with boarding facilities as it is expected
to draw students from a wide region which need not be near a urban
center.

Re: Emergency Contact Systems for Parents (UNCLASSIFIED)

Classification: UNCLASSIFIED=20
Caveats: NONE

There are a number of Free OSS options for the email piece. We were
looking at PHPList and Mailman, but there are many others. There are
also free services like schoolsout.com that do email (free) and sms
(cost to parent).

For the phone piece I am not aware of any that would be suitable for
emergencies. In theory you want the emergency system to broadcast
quickly and not be physically located on or near your campus. So you
probably want a service that is directly tied into communications
infrastructure and capable of making hundreds of concurrent calls a
minute. We figured for 150 students we would still need to make 750
calls in an emergency (2 cell phones, 2 office numbers, one home phone).

For non-emergency there are a number of auto-dialer systems including
free versions and plug-in for Asterix VOIP systems. These systems will
make calls one-by-one until finished with the call list so it may take a
few hours depending on how many lines/modems you have to devote to it.=20

Does anyone know of possibly an open source program that might do a

year but as I am doing more research, I believe this is an important
tool to have even during our practice drills.

Question about Williamsburg Virtual Field trips

Hi
I am curious if anyone on the list has done any of the Williamsburg
Virtual Field trips and what you think about them. One of my 5/6
teachers has been researching this but without having knowledge about
them, we didn't want to go forward with doing one.

Thanks

Re: Apple Workgroup manager

Elizabeth,

In WGM you can create computer lists . There is a feature that will
search for the workstations that you can then add to the group. I
have had to manually add addresses and names for some computers that

Re: Vacant campuses

Greg,
Northfield Mt. Hermon School consolidated onto the Mt. Hermon campus two
years ago, after operating two fully-functional campuses since the
Northfield School for Girls merged with the Mt. Hermon School in 1971. I
believe that the Northfield campus is vacant. It has some wonderful
facilities and is located in a beautiful part of central Massachusetts. (I
graduated from NMH in 1972 and spent two years on the Northfield campus
before moving to Mt. Hermon my senior year)). For more information, check

Re: Vacant campuses

As far as I know the Northfield School campus in E. Northfield, MA is still available. It meets the criteria you mention and the setting is gorgeous. (As you might know, the entire Northfield Mt. Hermon school is now on the campus that used to be Mt. Hermon.)

Hi!

When I was at Pine Cobble School, that's exactly what we did, for exactly
those reasons.

At my current school (7-12), we might have a prospective 8th grader visit
the 7th grade only if she applies near the end of the year, the idea being
that at that point in time it would be more valuable to her to meet her
future classmates rather than see the exact courses she would be taking if
she enrolls. I could see that applying in your case as well.

Take care,

Vacant campuses

I have been asked by a group to help them look into vacant campuses
that might be acquired for a private school. It could be a school or
college campus that has closed for example.

Ideally the campus would be someplace in New England, have some
boarding capacity. It needs not be near a major urban center.

Should anyone know of such a facility please let me know so I can pass
the information along.

Re: 6th Grade Admissions Process

Hi Tracey:
Our applicants for sixth grade visit with the sixth grade in the middle
school, so that the middle school faculty may evaluate the candidates. Once
a student is accepted, they have the opportunity to visit with our fifth
grade for a day.

Re: 6th Grade Admissions Process

At Manlius Pebble Hill we have the student visit in the grade they are
currently enrolled in. We look for socialization and participation in
classes and feel the best evaluation is within the student population
they hope to join. We always run a two day visit which alleviates the
anxiety of the first day with the second day visit.

Re: [BayAreaDA] 6th Grade Admissions Process

Dear Tracey,

We have experimented a lot with this since I took this position in the
middle of January 2007. We find that the students do well if they visit
primarily with the 5th grade, but they attend one middle school class. We
ask the parents what they think that their child would like to see in
order to choose the class. We also give the middle schooler a tour of
middle and upper school and have them meet the middle school principle
briefly. I hope this helps!

Re: Apple Workgroup manager

Not only do you not need to switch to the wireless mac address, you
specifically need to NOT change the address from the wired one.
Workgroup manager looks for the "EN0" address for management (which
is the wired one - look in Network Utility) even when it uses the
wireless. If you switch to the wireless mac address, workgroup
manager won't work.

We manage many settings and policies through workgroup manager in
exactly the way you describe - image the computers on the wire, then
use them wirelessly - and haven't had a problem.

Apple Workgroup manager

All of my previous experience has been with the wonderful world of Windows. Can someone help with Apple's workgroup manager? We imaged all of our laptops through an ethernet connection. Therefore the ethernet ID in workgroup manager is the ethernet mac address. In order to manage these laptops in a wireless environment, do I need to move the wireless mac address from Server Administrator to workgroup manager? Can you put the wireless mac address in the ethernet ID box? Has anyone had success with this? Is there any other way to manage Apple laptops in a wireless environment? I am not particularly interested in Remote Desktop, it is too cumbersome and I don' t have the time or inclination to view 188 laptops, i just want to enact some management techniques.
Thank you for any advise.

Re: Headmasters Who Maintain Blogs

I've been keeping one for years. Not too long ago, I moved it to terapad,
which offers some interesting add-ons, including the ability to have a media
library, a school store, etc. I invited the Head of school and the Principal
of the Middle School to join in, but so far they have not taken to it. You
can see it here: http://nlm.terapad.com/

Re: Headmasters Who Maintain Blogs

Our principal maintains a blog, which, she shares her thoughts about
various topics.... you can view it:

http://www.srsmn.org/dorothybialke/wordpress

This has helped tremendously in encouraging our teachers to blog as
well.

Re: Email questions (UNCLASSIFIED)

Classification: UNCLASSIFIED=20
Caveats: NONE

Carl,

Off the top of my head.
1. You may have a DNS issue. If you are using more than one DNS, are
they configured exactly the same/replicating properly. Do you have
separate Mac and PC DNS systems with your macs going to an Apple DNS?
If so, point them to the PC DNS.
2. You may need to enter the user name as domain/username
3. Your pre-Win 2000 user names may not match your actual user names in
Exchange (i.e. may be a user account issue and not actually related to
the server information)
4. Your macs are on a separate class C ,VLAN, or physically separate
network. They are constantly being routed across narrow bandwidth at
the gateway or there is a DNS or routing table problem with
recognizing/routing to the separate IP space. There may also be an
active directory component to this type of problem as well, I just don't
have a reference system to browse and see which setting are the issue.

Alternates
1. Revert to IMAP (The exchange connection under apple is MAPI). This
should be pretty resilient and your not losing much.
2. If your IP is unlikely to change, map it in your host file to take
DNS issues out of the equation but this is hard to maintain. If this
works and your mailboxes load fast, you know the problem is in the
network (DNS, VLAN, AD, etc.)
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=3D88158
3. Wait a few months until the new version of Mac Office comes out.
The Entourage 2008 is, by all accounts, greatly improved=20
http://www.macoffice2008.com/#
4. Spend a few hours with TCPDump and grep out the problem.

Subject: Email questions

Hello lists,

I've posted on this topic before and thought I'd inquire one more
time before I give up and take another path.

We've had mixed results using the Apple Mail program with the
school's Exchange Server. There are so many inconsistencies that baffle
me to no end. For example:

1) On the G4 in my office it works well. The only hitch is in the
morning as it loads the Inbox, very slow

2) On the iBooks with PHD accounts:

On some Books it can be configured using only the name of the mail
server rather than the full name: mail.school.com

On others it works only when the mail.school.com name is used

Today out of desperation I tried the IP address 10.1.xx.xx and it
work although there is still the dreaded loading of the inbox which is
slow. At that point it only quits when force quit is used.

When used in combination with Noteshare it is a great tool for mailing
lab notebooks.

There also appears to be a location/model issue. We have few issues in
my Chem lab with MacBooks vs. the Bio lab across the hall with G3/
G4 iBOOKs. All base stations are set to be bridges, they are not handing
out addresses. All iBOOKs use static addressing.

Perhaps it is time to throw up the white flag and move to Entourage.

thanks

Suggestions on Parent Communication Systems (UNCLASSIFIED)

Classification: UNCLASSIFIED=20
Caveats: NONE

All,

As the tech savvy member of a school's board I have been tasked with
finding a Parent Communication System and would appreciate any
suggestions. Ideally it would be:
--Hosted since the school does not have the infrastructure to install or
maintain a system.
--Pricing that scales to accommodates a small school (200 students.
150ish families)
--Capable of emergency/non-emergency phone calls and sms with ways for
parents to differentiate between the two.
--Capable of emergency/non-emergency email with multiple lists and
ability to include attachments.
--Parents manage their own data through a web interface and can
subscribe to various lists (e.g. 1st grade list but not After School
list) with school admin approval (or allow room parents to manage the
lists/approval).

In searching the archives I came across the following suggestions from
last year but nothing recent, and none of them fit the precise
requirement. Thus far School Reach seems closest. I would appreciate
any other suggestions. =20
