Google and Gmail: Google Suite Resources Gmail Resources Back in the spring, the District began transitioning from First Class to gmail due to sudden and unexpected news from the company that First Class was no longer being hosted for us after June 30th. This required some quick changes on our part, including setting up a temporary First Class email server onsite. The transition will involve several steps over time. Use the above links to get started transitioning to Gmail. The goal is to have everyone comfortable in gmail as soon as possible, and we want to reassure you that you will still have access to First Class during the transition, and we will provide assistance and training throughout the transition. Sometime this fall we will confirm the date on which First Class will not longer be available for sending and receiving emails. The Tech Team can assist with moving content from contacts, folders, and FC Conferences. |
