Welcome to the SDS! This is the main page, the gateway to everything inside.

Along the top bar is information to let you know the status of the SDS. Terms such as Alpha, Beta will let you know if you are not using the production version. If you have changed the viewing year, then the year you are in will be shown at the top left.

In the bar at the top are a number of shortcuts to important parts of the SDS.

  • Clicking on the logo or the SDS text just below it will bring you back to the beginning
  • Help opens a window within the SDS to show you the Wiki help files


Click on a menu item to go to that page. If there is a [+] beside the item, you will instead expand that item, and there will be more menu items underneath. After you have clicked on the [+] item, it will turn to a [-] item, and you can contract that menu back to its original form.

Once you start using items in the menu, they will appear in the most commonly used pages list. This is designed to provide a quick shortcut to the pages you use most often, so that you don't have to dig through the menu to get to them. These are on a person-to-person basis, so your most commonly used pages are not the same as the teacher down the hall's list.

The news section contains the most recent changes made to the SDS. Check this if you want to know what has changed... it's usually written up in the news.
