Calendar Event Times

We have received several calls in the office stating that our event times are wrong on the school calendar. After checking we have discovered that our times are correct. If you are looking at the calendar on your phone or ipad , adjustments need to be made in your settings so that your calendar reflects central time.

Here are directions on how to solve this problem.

  • Tap Calendar.
  • Tap Time Zone Override.
