Using School Email

LCPS uses Gmail as it is part of our GSuite for Education Apps. School email is to be used for school purposes only and is monitored. Elementary students can only send emails to and receive emails from teachers and school staff. Middle school students can only receive emails from approved organizations.

Make sure you are emailing your teacher (unless you have been told otherwise) to an email address with "@lcps.k12.va.us" at the end. You can find your teacher's email addresses on the schools' websites or through the links below. If you try to reply to your teacher through an email about a post/assignment in Google Classroom, it will look like you sent it but it will never arrive in your teacher's inbox. Notice on the right that the email from Classroom did not actually come from your teacher's email address; highlighted  in yellow you can see it came from a no-reply email box. Your teacher will not get emails sent to this email address.

Filtering your Gmail Inbox

Is a document too small to read? Try clicking directly on it to open it full screen. If that does not work, hover your cursor on it until you see a box/arrow icon and then click on that to open the item full screen in a new tab. For YouTube videos, once you hit play, you can click on the square icon (4 brackets in a square shape) in the bottom right corner of the video player to make it play full screen (the Esc key or the then updated icon in the bottom right corner will get you out of full screen).
