Hi DN528,


You came through from an article that provides great details for setting an alarm. The only way to set it for a week away is if the day has passed on the current week. For example, if you are setting it for Saturday and today is Sunday, then you can choose Saturday for the alarm and it will do it for the next Saturday. In the meantime, you can set a reminder to advise you to set the alarm or to be notified of the day and time for after school using the steps listed here: Use Reminders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support that are also listed below.


"Create a reminder

  1. Open the Reminders app.
  2. Tap + New Reminder, then type your reminder.

An iPhone showing the New Reminder screen, where you can add a title, notes, and other details to create a reminder.

You can also add reminders to your most important to-do lists from the Reminders widget on your Home Screen.


Set a due date

Tap the Date and Time button  to set a due date for the reminder. Choose from Today, Tomorrow, This Weekend, or tap Date & Time to set your own day and time."


Best regards.
