All services are hosted on the Central Valley School District staff domain (centralvalleysd.net) and student domain (cvstudent.net). Services are available to students and staff via any computer, tablet, and or phone.

Google for Education FAQ

Who will receive a G Suite account?
All Staff Members and Students. Before anyone is given access a G Suite account, the Technology Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) for Staff and Students must be understood and accepted.
 
Does CVSD’s G Suite program comply with Google's stated age restrictions?
Students under age 13 ordinarily need parent permission to have email accounts, as stated in Google's privacy policy. However since the G Suite tools that we are using are a secure environment monitored and controlled by the District, COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) allows the School District to act as the parents'/guardians' agent and approve the accounts on their behalf. Also, all student G Suite accounts K through 8 only allow communication within the Central Valley domains.
