Just remember…We often times don’t think of email as being a copywritten piece of work, but technically speaking, it is ‘published’ on servers and recorded with time/date stamps. Best practice is to forward emails with permission from the original sender.
JCPS email is subject to open record laws, no email should be considered private.
