email From the Microsoft Outlook webpage or app

One way to by-pass logging into the PAUSD ID Portal to access your PAUSD email is to use the Microsoft Outlook direct login page. You can use this on your computer by going to this link: Microsoft Outlook Login Page , or by downloading the Microsoft Outlook app to your tablet or smartphone.

1. Open the Microsoft Outlook Login page on your computer or the Outlook app on your phone/tablet

2. Type in your full PAUSD email account (first-initial+last-name@pausd.org)

3. Click Next

4. Enter your PAUSD password

5. Click Sign In

6. If you see the box that says "Stay Signed In" you can choose to say Yes or No, or to tell Microsoft to not show you that option the next time you login

7. The next screen may show Microsoft Office, or just Microsoft Outlook; if Office appears, you can choose Outlook from icons either on one side of the screen or the top or bottom

If you already have personal Outlook account (ending in @outlook.com), you can add your @PAUSD account, but it needs to be added as a Microsoft Exchange account (for schools, businesses), not Microsoft Outlook (personal accounts). Try this Microsoft help page for more specifics to add your PAUSD account (Microsoft Exchange) to your personal Outlook page.

Any communications you send or receive via the Microsoft Outlook webpage or app outside of the PAUSD ID Portal are automatically synced with your Office 365 Webmail (Outlook) app on the PAUSD ID Portal. This is a great way to keep up with your PAUSD email without having to enter via the PAUSD ID Portal each time, especially if you like to check your email on your smartphone.
