New Phones
Technology Services, in partnership with Maverick Networks, deployed new phones to all the school sites. All internal and external calls can be made using five (5) digit dialing. For instance, instead of dialing 4 + Site Code + Extension, you now only need to dial the Site Code + Extension. To make external calls, please dial 8 and then the number.  Please see the attached reference guide Mitel Quick Reference Guide
