Teacher ↔ Student Communication
Zoom is still NOT an approved application for students to use. Also, it's blocked for all PUSD students when logged into their PUSD accounts. We want to be vigilant with internet safety, and anyone can contact students via Zoom. Teachers should NOT be contacting students using personal accounts, please make sure students are logged into their PUSD account for all district contact. This is for your safety and theirs.
