Tech Help

All students have Lee Public Schools email accounts in Google Gmail. For LES students, these are set to only work within the District. Parents are encouraged to monitor their children’s accounts, especially for our younger children. All email content is archived; this means that the District saves all the emails on its system.

LPS teachers use Google Classroom as a secure learning network for teachers and students. It provides a safe way to connect, share content, access homework, participate in discussions, and receive class information. Teachers can link to videos and other media content within the Google Classroom.

There will be a small number of approved video conferencing apps that teachers may use to "virtually meet" with groups of students at the same time. Google Meet is one; Zoom is another. Staff will use these apps to ‘meet’ with individuals or groups. They can use this app for meetings, conferences, small and large group classes.

• Meetings can be audio only, or include video.

• A parent or caregiver should be in the room with young children.

• Identify an appropriate place in your home where the ‘meeting’ can happen.

• Don’t hesitate to speak to staff if you have questions.

Google Chat is a text-based messaging app that teachers can use for 1:1 or group chats. All conversations are archived by the District just as emails are.
