Introduction to the Calendar

Using the Google Calendar allows you to create events (booking lab time and requests for signing out mobile technology), set alerts and reminders for each event, and share your events with specific people (lab techs or aides).

Sharing the CalendarYour calendar is already shared with the Rye

City School district. However, if you’d like someone specific to see your events (like lab aides or techs), then you may share your calendar and give them the ability to view your creations, updates and revisions.
