Email Transition
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We want to inform you that student email addresses have recently been updated to use a new domain: @orrvilleschools.org. The portion of the email before the “@” has not changed.
Students should now use this updated email address to log into both their email accounts and Final Forms. Their passwords remain the same.
Example:
Old: 26joesmith@mail.orrville.k12.oh.us
New: 26joesmith@orrvilleschools.org
Students' current Google accounts ending in @mail.orrville.k12.oh.us will become aliases, meaning any email sent to your old address will still arrive in your inbox. The email account with the new address includes all previous emails.
Please remind your child to begin using their new email address immediately. If they encounter any login issues, they may contact their school’s front office or the board office.
Thank you.

No Cell Phone Use During the School Day
Dear Families of the Orrville Schools:
At Orrville Schools, we strive to ensure that all students are engaged and feel safe every day. Student cell phones lead to educational disruptions, distractions, and significant social conflict. For this reason, the Orrville School District will no longer allow students to use cell phones during the school day.
Please take a look at the student handbooks for each school building, which outline the expectations for student use of cell phones and other devices, the consequences of improper use, and instructions on how to contact your student through the main offices during school hours. In the event of a school or district emergency, you will be notified by phone, email, and text message with updates regarding the situation through our automated communication system.
The Orrville School District relies on family support to ensure the success of its cell phone policy. Be sure to review the phone policy as a family. Consider:
· Proactively discuss with your student their after-school plans, lunch arrangements, appointments, or activities in advance of arrival at school.
· Remind students how to contact you and their families during school hours.
· It is important to emphasize adherence to school rules regarding the cellphone policy to ensure consistency in expectations between home and school.
· Visit http://education.ohio.gov/cellphones for more information and resources about cell phone use for your family.
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation in facilitating a safe and supportive learning environment. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
Dr. David Toth, Superintendent
