***A note about email accounts at Argyll

Clarification on Parent access to Google Apps:

Google Apps is a district funded and supported initiative provided to all staff and students at Edmonton Public Schools. It allows us to provide an e-mail account to all students without purchasing and maintaining additional servers at Argyll. The district does not provide Google Apps accounts to parents.

Student E-mail:

By default all student e-mail is sent to their Gmail account supplied by the district as part of Google Apps. If students would prefer to use a different e-mail account, they can check out the Google Apps F.A.Q. on the mail page in the locker for instructions on forwarding their e-mail to another location.

Parent E-mail:
E-mail messages to parents are sent to the e-mail address provided to the school during registration. To see what e-mail address we have on file for you, please go to the Mail tab in the locker. If this address has changed or we don't have one on file for you, there is a link there where you can submit a change. 

Parents with children in a parent-directed program can forward student emails to one family email account by forwarding from the share.epsb.ca student account from gmail settings. Click here for instructions.
