Changing Your Password Once you’ve logged into your email, you

Never give out your new password to anyone! You are responsible for anything sent from your email account!
If you forget your new password, your teacher can reset it to your birth date.
Email Etiquette Never use all capital letters. Don’t write anything you
wouldn’t say in school. Never send threatening email to
other people. Always fill in the subject line in
your email. Use email as an opportunity to
practice your writing skills!
Acceptable UseWhen you use email, you agree to the following: I will not use email to bully, harass, or
threaten other students or individuals. I understand that email is provided to me by
the district and is district property. The district reserves the right to access a student’s email account at any time if misuse is suspected.
I understand that my email account is filtered and that any message written containing inappropriate language or content will not be delivered.
WarningAny student who violates Acceptable Use terms and conditions may have his/her email account disabled.
Please be sure that all communication is appropriate.
Email SafetyProtect yourself when online and using email! Change your email password as soon as you get
your email account. Never give your password out to anyone. Never give out personal information over email. Make sure you log out when you finish using your
email account. Do not open an email from someone you don’t
know. Remember, your Greenville County email account
is monitored. Tell your teachers/parents if someone sends you
something that makes you feel uncomfortable.
Important! You can use your district username and
password to log onto computers and save to your own H: drive!
You can login to the library catalog (Destiny Quest) and connect with friends, create books lists, and rate and review the books you read!
You can login to Overdrive and check out audiobooks and eBooks with your district username and password!
