Accessing School Email Through the Gmail App
Note: During the above installation process, both Android and iOS, will install a Google Device Policy app on your device. This is required so your personal information stays private (we do not see private apps or information on your device and to ensure the school’s Gmail is protected from any unauthorized or malicious third-party apps. In short, your device remains yours and the information on it stays private.

Accessing School Email on a Mobile Browser
An alternative is to access the school's email from a mobile browser such as Firefox or Safari. This avoids adding a policy on your device. However, you must use a mobile browser other than Chrome. Because Chrome is a Google app, it will place a policy on your device to separate school data from your personal data (so we do not see it).
To access your school email on a mobile browser:
Open a mobile browser such as Safari or Firefox (not Chrome)
Enter your username and password.
