E-mail
Info | | In
lieu of personal accounts, students are encouraged to use their
BVSD-provided e-mail for school related work. As with most major
e-mail providers, student e-mail accounts will be subject to a 10
MB attachment file size limit on any given message. Along with their
e-mail accounts, students will also have the ability to access work
stored on their school’s server through the EZ Access link
on the BVSD home page (www.bvsd.org). This link provides access
to student work whether at home or school through any Internet
connection on all major current operating systems (for example:
Windows, OSX, and Linux). Full instructions on how to use
EZ Access can also be found on this link. Be advised that, due to
bandwidth limitations, the EZ Access method of file transfer does not
currently work with any multi-media files, such as movie or image
files. Students may also use USB pen drives (flash or thumb
drives) to enable the transfer of work between school and home.
