NEW ACCOUNTS - employee accounts are active on the date of first employment unless otherwise arranged through Human Resources

• How to Set Up Your New GCSD Email and Network Accounts
• Non-Employee Request/Agreement for GCSD Network/Email Account (Student Teachers, Vendors, etc)
  • This form must be completed online by the person requesting the account using their college or business email, NOT the district supervisor. Use the email of a building principal/department supervisor for first level approval. (more info)

Approved Websites/Software/Digital Resources with Personally Identifiable Information

• New York State Education Law 2-d requires that any digital resource, free or paid, that collects personally identifiable information of students or staff to be approved by the district. These resources must be under a Third-party contract secured by the district or a BOCES acting on behalf of the district. Per GCSD Board of Education Policy 5671, employees are also not authorized to enter into "click-wrap" agreements with vendors without the district's approval.
