Gmail is Google’s web based email program. It allows users to send and receive written messages and attached files.
All staff members and students in grades 6-12 have active Perry Township Schools Gmail accounts. Students in grades K-5 cannot send or receive mail, but do have Google logins that take the form of an email address.
Contacts allows you to save addresses and create mailing groups. Contacts used to be a feature within Gmail. Now it is a separate app accessed at contacts.google.com. Gmail can still use the information in Contacts to fill in an email address or send a message to a group. You only need to go into the Contacts app when you want to add or edit your contacts.
