First Week Tech Support.
Everything you need to be ready for the first day of school on Wednesday, August 19.
Miss a class? You will not be penalized.
We understand that getting set up and started for the first week can feel like a lot. The Valor staff is here to support you through it.
Set up in this order.
Each step depends on the one before it. Please do not skip ahead. Already set up? Jump to your links ›

Go to your first class Your daily schedule with the join links for Homeroom and every class. Start here each morning. ›Talk to us live.
Two Zoom rooms are open this week. Drop in whenever you need to, for as long as you need to.
A real person, on Zoom.
Bring any problem — a password that will not work, a device that will not cooperate, a link that will not open.
Try joining a class.
Test your Zoom sign-in, camera and microphone in a real class setup, so the first day holds no surprises.
Or just email a person.
Every one of them is here for your family this week.
Find your Advocate.
If your student has an Advocate, look them up by grade and email them directly.
All class times on the Veracross Portal schedule are shown in Central Time. Convert to your own time zone before the first day so you are not early or late to homeroom.
