EMAIL OR PASSWORD PROBLEMS
This is to address a lot of confusion over email. First, we are now using gmail for our school email system. To login, your must go to our home page stjschools.org and click Staff Email from the Staff dropdown menu. If you cannot login either you have not changed your password(which will be covered below), or it did not register when you changed it(if this is the case please change your password again).
To change your password, login on any computer at school and hit the keys for Ctrl+Alt+Delete. This will bring up a prompt that has Change Password as an option. You will need to type in your old password, and then what you would like to change it to. You must have at least one capital letter, one number or special character, and must be at least 8 characters long to meet password requirements.
All of your email folders and all old email will be transferred to your new account. However contacts and calendars cannot be automatically transferred. In order to manually transfer these you will need to login into your computer, and follow the instructions below.
