About the School


The school is located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the city of Salisbury in Wicomico County. The school is within a couple miles of Salisbury University, located south of U.S. 50 and Maryland Route 350, east of Maryland Route 12, and northwest of U.S. 13.


In 1997, the Career Technology Department of the Wicomico Applied Technology Center merged into Parkside High School. An addition of over 113,000 square feet (10,500 m2) was constructed to accommodate the students.[2]


The school's center is predominantly one story. This area houses the library, gym, auditorium, cafeteria, and the guidance offices, in addition to special subject classrooms, such as music and technology education. The two-story section of the school is home to the general education classrooms including such subjects as social studies, English, mathematics, foreign languages, marketing, science and business education.[2]


The school is unique in that it houses the only planetarium within Wicomico County. This planetarium, located between the general education courses and the library, is open to use by all students of Wicomico County. The school offers an Astronomy course because of this unique feature. This class is taught by Anthony Goodyear, who has worked with NASA and other organizations and has a long history of scientific excellence. In February, 2008, Anthony Goodyear was named WMDT47's "Teacher Who Makes a Difference".[2]

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
