How to use the Calendar
The School Calendar is found on the front page of our website: www.mlsem.org.
Directions
The Calendar will show the current month and have the current day
circled. You can change the month by clicking on the arrows to the
right and
left of the month shown. If the month name is a link you can download a vCalendar file of the entire month. Make sure you import the vCal file with the Import Wizard, if you open the file by double clicking on it you will only get the first event.
If a day is highlighted as a link that means there are events scheduled on that day. You may rest you cursor over that day to see a quick list of events or you may click on that day to see a full list.
Click on one of the events in the list for details. In the table on
the right you will see details such as 'what', 'when' and 'where'.
There
is also an 'add event to calendar' function. Here you can download the
event as a vCalendar or iCalendar File and save it to your own calendar.
