This year marks the first for Lancaster students in grades three through 12 to be given their own e-mail accounts. Last week, the Lancaster Board of Education approved a contractual agreement with Gaggle.net to continue using the system in the district next school year. The student e-mail accounts are just one of the ways teachers in Lancaster are using technology in the classroom to prepare students for a more global job market. “I could see going paperless with Gaggle in the future and having the students turn all of their big essays in to me electronically,” said English teacher Kelli Marvin, whose students use the system to e-mail in assignments and class projects.
