GoogleApps
Now available to secondary students and staff @ google.allenisd.org
Starting in the 2011-12 school year, Allen ISD will offer Google Apps for Education to all
staff and students (Grades 3 - 12). As part of the Google Apps suite of applications, all
staff and students have access to Google Docs, Google Groups, and Google Sites.
Students in grades 9-12 will also have email accounts using Gmail. All staff will continue
to use Microsoft Outlook as their email platform.

regarding usage in our district.
In addition, Jason Baughman, Technology Integration and Science Instructional
Specialist, has created two videos about the use of Google Docs and its capabilities that
will be helpful to teachers new to Google Docs.
