Hello SSVT Community,
On Tuesday March 24th,, New England Cable News (NECN) featured SSVT on its Making the Grade segment of its 9:00 news broadcast. Click here for that video clip.
What a wonderful showcase for all the awesome students in Culinary Arts and the value of a vocational technical education! Viewers can clearly see how passionate and motivated students can be when engaged with their hands-on work. We are all very proud of you.

Time to Download the new SSVT App!
Hello SSVT Community,
Many of you have probably heard by now that SSVT has its own app. I want to encourage staff, students and parents to download the app at your earliest convenience. We have received great feedback from those who have already downloaded it.
The app helps you access all of our school
information in one place from any mobile device. It gives you
access to the school bulletin, news, sports information, important
notifications, links to log into PowerSchool and much more.
To download the app visit the app store on your Apple device
or the Google Play store on your Android device and search for “South Shore
Vocational Tech HS”.
If you have any questions feel free to contact the tech department via email iParenthelp@ssvotech.org or via phone at 781-878-8822 x451. Thanks for staying connected with SSVT!

Below are a few tips to help you get started with the app:
Directory: Provides a listing of all teachers and staff, giving you an easy way to
contact teachers or other staff members.
PowerSchool: Provides a link for you to log into PowerSchool.
If you do not already have the PowerSchool app installed you will be prompted
to do so. If prompted for the district code, you will need to enter:
CLGC
Notifications: This is where you'll find important notifications from
the school - like snow days, Delayed starts, or a notification that your bus is
going to be running late.
If you swipe left, you'll go to page 2 of the app. Below is a
list and description of each of the icons available on this page:
Stream:
Is a running stream of all social media and calendar posts related to
SSVT.
Calendar:
A calendar of day and evening activities at SSVT.
News:
See news articles related to SSVT.
Tip Line: The tip line provides the community with a way to notify
Administration of events they consider important. There are several
categories available, including Bullying, Drugs, Kudos/Praise, Threats, Vandalism,
and Weapons. You can choose whether your tip is anonymous or not, you can
provide a picture to go alone with your tip, and provide any information you
feel will help make your school a better place!

Resources:
This section is broken up into 5 categories. You will most often be using
the "Parents" link inside of the resources folder. Some of the
links can be accessed elsewhere in the app, but the attempt was to provide a
one-stop-shop for you to access anything you might need. For instance,
there's another link to log into PowerSchool, as well as a link to our uniform
policy and the "My School Bucks" site where you can add money to your
child's lunch account.
One more swipe left will bring you to the third page.
My School Bucks: A link to log into "My School Bucks" to
add money to your school lunch account.
Settings:
Use the settings icon configure the schools you're following, how you want your
alerts to behave, select your language, and rate the app.
