Glenbard Desk/Classroom Phones
Your desk phone, or the phone in your classroom, has a few quick steps to use it. You can dial another extension, call an outside number, and check the voicemail.
Making a call within the District (to another District phone)
- Dial the extension of the desired person to contact
- It will be four digits in length
Making an outside call
- Press “7” then “1,” and the area code followed by the number
- It will look like 71-XXX-XXX-XXXX
Checking your voicemail
- Dial 2500
- Then enter your pin.
- Or press the voicemail button above the settings and directory button
Calling a person’s voicemail directly
- Press the asterisk (star button) * followed by the extension
- It will look like: *XXXX
Transferring a call
- While on the call, press transfer, dial the extension you are transferring to, and press transfer one more time.
- You only have 3-4 seconds to complete this, or the call will not get transferred.
