ClassLink is working!

ClassLink is back up and working as of about 3:20 PM today! Thank you for your patience. ClassLink was caught in the Amazon AWS outage that hit across the globe, so unfortunately, we could not do anything but wait for it to be fixed as well. Thank you to everyone who used the direct login to Edgenuity and kept working! M@VS showed perseverance today! Whew!

All seniors need to be at MVS tomorrow morning for the Senior ACT Retake. We will start testing at 8:00 and will be finished before noon. Please see below for more information.

Go M@VS!
