On Monday, Apptegy, our mobile app provider was impacted by the widespread Amazon AWS outage and part of that impact caused guardians specifically on iOS devices being unable to get logged in. This was resolved early this morning. If users are still experiencing this, we recommend having them force-quit the app and relaunch to try to log in again. If that doesn't work, have them delete and reinstall the app. And then, if it still persists that they cannot log in, try restarting the device. However, we should not see any widespread login issues for guardians at this time.

Please feel free to reach out to the technology department if you are still having issues. You can email tdbaker@genoaschools.com or call 419-855-7741 ext. 3906 and we'll be happy to assist you.

In ELA, our 6th graders read about the heroic service dogs who helped during the 9/11 tragedy. They learned how these specially trained dogs and their handlers worked tirelessly in rescue and recovery efforts, offering hope and comfort in one of our nation’s most difficult times. Officer Nye and Hailey, our school therapy dog, stopped in to talk about the talents service dogs possess and how they are used in our society.
