Quick Guide: Gmail for Students, Grades K-12

1. Students can log in to Gmail by opening a web browser and going to gmail.com.
   
2. Sign in to your @student.pps.net account. Students' usernames follow the pattern of first initial, last name, last four digits of their student ID, "@student.pps.net." For example, Jay Raddison whose ID number is 123456 would have a username and email address of jraddison3456@student.pps.net.
3. Should you need help with your student’s username and password:

• Student default password is Pps_###### (using the student ID#)
• If that doesn't work, contact your student's teacher and/or school.
• Find your student's school contact for usernames support here.
• Students who have already reset their password but have forgotten their password, may find the Password Manager helpful.

Students can email teachers and other students. Students grades 4-8 cannot message anyone outside the PPS domain. Please see the resources below for teachers and families to help students with email.

If you continue to have trouble signing into your @student.pps.net account, contact Nancy Sullivan nsulliva@pps.net for help.

To login to either a parent or student account, go to http://parentvue.pps.net/.

To activate a ParentVUE account, contact Kerry Graves at kgraves@pps.net to get your activation code. These accounts follow your student throughout their enrollment at PPS schools, so there is not a new account generated when students start as freshmen at a new building.

To reset a password, go to http://parentvue.pps.net/  and select the "Password Reset" tab at the bottom of the page under "Further Information." You can also email Kerry Graves for a new temporary password.

If you need more help with ParentVUE/StudentVUE access, contact Kerry Graves at kgraves@pps.net or Cecilia Hornbuckle at chornbuc@pps.net.

Families can contact their child's school counselor from the links on our Counseling Team page: Madison's Counselors
