Friday, November 20, 2020, we will be implementing a new password policy for all Google Accounts. Once the policy is in place, any password that is older than 30 days, or does not meet the minimum standards will need to be changed. We ask you for your cooperation and to please change your student’s password before the dateline.
The details of the password policy are as follows:
- Password length – 8 Characters minimum
- Password complexity –must include: One Capital letter, One lower case, and One number.
Example: Apple123 - You cannot use a password that you have used before.
- Password changes – 180 days
If a student needs assistance with their password, there are several options available to get back into the Google account.
- Please contact your school and a staff member will be able to assist you.
- Students can also contact FamilyHelp.Live and a staff member will assist you.
