Think before clicking "send"...

Our GroupWise email system has a "group" feature that allows us to easily communicate with a group of users with a single-click.  For example, when we want to send one email message to all district employees, we can use the "ALLDISTRICT" group.  But wait - what if your message is really only applicable to district teachers?  In that case, you can use the group "ALLTEACH".

Please stop and think about your audience before you send a group email.  Many messages might actually be more appropriate for a smaller group than "ALLDISTRICT".  Your colleagues will appreciate a more judicious use of this group feature and more specifically, of the ALLDISTRICT group.

See the available GroupWise groups below.
