Calendar Link Guide

We now support the ability to link/view the SDS calendar to other devices, such as phones, tablets, and computers. This currently includes your timetable, along with day numbers, breaks, period cancellations and changes, and calendar items.

The instructions are divided up based on the type of device you have. For some devices, there are different options depending on which features you want to have.

If you encounter issues with these instructions, please contact Mr. Buckingham at the senior school, Mr. Floyd at the middle school, or Mr. Chan at the junior school. If you need to do something special or different, contact Mr. Kloosterman in the MIS department at the senior school.
