IT TICKETING SYSTEM

Please follow network procedures for addressing IT issues by emailing helpdesk@amsschools.org or going to the SharePoint link https://amsschools.freshservice.com/support/tickets/new.

Not having an orderly fashion for submitted issues causes drops of quality in service, makes an unfair situation for teachers who used the system properly, and gives the technician a confusing environment to work in. I also understand that there are urgent situations when IT support can pause their current task and address hot items immediately. Here are a couple bullets that would fit this situation.

• Campus wide internet outage
• Ransomware attack/Cybersecurity Incident
• Helping with technical issues during an important event (for example, the technician trying to fix a microphone during an awards ceremony)

Most other issues can be addressed through our ticketing system, giving Elizabeth a sustainable working environment and gives educators a consistent experience with tech support. Also, this enables AIG to monitor metrics and provide accurate training for the technician.

Happy Monday –  

• As we get ready to support/celebrate with our community next month on March 9th, I wanted to let you know how excited I am to be part of “Team-Camelback”. 

Our school is filled with people who have different beliefs, religious, traditions, and ways of living.  It is within our differences that we find Greatness! 

Both in our educational and operational environments at AMS-Camelback, cultural diversity benefits everyone!  It paves the way to better problem-solving, more empathy with compassion, and deepened learning.  So, if you have or know of something that we possibly should be recognizing please bring it to my attention. 

Earn extra “MONEY” by referring new students to AMS-Camelback – see me for details!
