MCUSD Student Email Orientation

Welcome to Gmail at school!
MCUSD.org

MCUSD can change your password
and read your emails

Your Google email and Docs are NOT Private
The State of California owns:
your computer and your email

Be safe. Be smart.
We watch it all.
This is your “work” email

We can look up email you delete....

Don’t Delete Your Emails!
1 - You may want to search them later
2 - That doesn’t make them “private”
3 - You have 25 gigs, you don’t need the space

A better way!! The Inbox Trick
In Google email, go to the gear
Click on Settings

Click on inbox…..
Select Unread in the ﬁrst section
HIT SAVE CHANGES AT THE BOTTOM!

Now your unread mail ﬂoats to the top!
