Student Safety and Security

The student email and Microsoft Teams accounts are essential to help the district to provide safe and secure tools for our students.

Students will only be able to send and receive email messages to people with Seattle Public Schools email address, such as teachers and other students. Seattle Public Schools (SPS) email addresses end with “@seattleschools.org.”

Students will not be able to send nor receive email from non SPS email addresses, such as Gmail. For parents worried about cyberbullying and similar risks, please read more about cyber bullying and online safety.
