Your username is your six-digit student number (ex. [email protected]). All email is administered by Gmail, so you will have access to your student account at home through your Chromebook or personal device. Email South Faculty ● All staff emails are formatted as [email protected] and can also be found through your Sapphire account. When emailing your teachers, you may also find them while you are composing an email in your school email account by putting their last name into the To: menu and choosing the correct person’s email. Grades Online ● Your grades are available at any time through your Sapphire account. Your parents can also see your grades through their access to the Sapphire Community Portal. You need to know your login credentials to access the gradebook; see guidance to set up your Sapphire access. This is a great way for you to keep up with what work is assigned and due. Guidance Office ● If you have a question or problem and don’t know who to turn to, start with your Guidance Counselor ● Go to the Guidance Office if you: o Need to see your counselor o Have questions about your schedule o Have questions about colleges or careers o Need to set up or reset your Sapphire access o Need working papers; transcripts; The East Stroudsburg Area School District issues Pennsylvania work permits to all minors who reside in the school district. To obtain a PA work permit from the school district: 1. The student must be planning to work in Pennsylvania. Other states, including New York and New Jersey, do not have reciprocal work arrangements and a work permit must be obtained from the school district where the employer is located in that state. 2. The student must be a resident of the East Stroudsburg Area School District. If the student is not a school district resident, he or she should obtain a work permit from the school district in which they reside. Note: If the student is living out of state and working within the East Stroudsburg Area School District, the school district can issue a work permit. 3. The student will need to come to the main office of the high school which they attend, or would attend, and obtain the proper forms. The student will need to produce the following documents before obtaining a work permit: a. Original or copy of birth certificate, baptismal certificate, passport or photo driver's license. 4. A parent or guardian must appear before the issuer of the work permit. 6 5. IMPORTANT! The student must be present when the work permit is issued and a signature of a parent or guardian must be executed at the high school main office at the time of issuance or the signature must be notarized on an attestation document. This is a state mandate. ● The best time to see your counselor is before or after school (by appointment, unless it’s an emergency) or by appointment during the day. Chromebooks ● South employs a one-to-one initiative with Chromebooks. They will be distributed to students on the first day of school and will be your responsibility for the year. Make sure you carry your Chromebook in a protective case; charge it each night; and have your charger with you in school,
