3.    Click "+ New" (upper left-hand corner.)

4.    Choose "Create group."

5.    Choose a name for your new group.

6.    Enter in the email addresses of your group members.  For in-district email addresses, enter full or partial first or last name and choose from the drop-down menu.  

       Out-of-district email address require full address entered in, then press enter.  Addresses can only be entered one at a time.  Click "Save."

To send an email to your group:

2.    Click on "To:" and then choose "Groups" to see your contact groups.  

3.    Double-click on the group, or single-click on the "+" next to the group, you want to email.  The group name will appear in your To: line.  

4.    Compose email as normal.

To modify members of the group:

2.    Click on "Edit" in the far right-hand corner.  The member names will have an X next to the address.  Click the X to remove that member from the group.  

       This is the same location to add new members to the group.  Save any changes made.

To delete the entire group:

1.    Click on the three dots next to Edit.  

2.    Tap "Delete."
