REMINDER FROM WPS: ASPEN WILL BE *UNAVAILABLE* STARTING AT MIDNIGHT, WEDNESDAY AUGUST 16TH AND SEVERAL DAYS FOLLOWING FOR MOST USERS, WHILE THE END-OF-YEAR ROLLOVER PROCEDURES ARE RUN!
All User accounts of all types will be Expired as of 11:59pm TONIGHT, Tuesday Aug 15th. These procedures and post-rollover tasks take several days to complete, and most parts require zero users in the system while they run. Once completed, Aspen will be fully in the new school year 2023-24, and users will be enabled again in phases over the next several days.
As always, Thank You for your patience as we perform these important, required end-of-year/start-of-year procedures!
Enjoy the rest of your summer! π
