That's right and soon it will be time for the staff to report back at 1892 Polenta Road.
There have been a lot of changes at Cleveland High over the summer. The biggest is the move from Groupwise email to Gmail. This has NOT gone as smoothly as promised. But really who is surprised at that development...lol
For those of your who are not familiar with Gmail, get ready to experience the best email system in the world. I challenge anyone to prove to me wrong on this one. In our ever changing technology environment, gmail will undoubtedly become your best friend. Why? It's simple, with just one login, you will be able to access many, many other programs. Our training the first semester will consist of a good amount of Google Apps training.
Well I am gonna keep this short because I am planning for our Freshman Camp. We need volunteers to help by the way. It is a great way to get to know some of our new kiddo's.
Yours in Technology

Hope everyone has a great day

Welcome to the first day of the 21st Century
Today Johnston County Schools will enter the 21st Century. Wellll kinda.
Of course in the finest tradition I got locked out of my email yesterday morning. Due to the fact I have been using the JCS Google Apps domain since this time last year, my password was supposed to stay the same, but it did not and now I can't get into my Google Apps accounts.
Is this a little frustrating? A little annoying yes, frustrating well I would not go that far. I know that no matter how many constraints our county puts on us, that in the end I trust Google to provide a superior product in Gmail and other products that any other provider. And the best part is it is practically free. There are some archiving cost but this pails in comparison to the value added to our services.
So if you are locked out just know that this is temporary and will get worked out soon. And most importantly we will have finally make a step inside the door of the 21st Century. Good Luck and Welcome!!!
