Faculty Email Addresses
DeKalb County School District has transitioned to a new email address system. We are no longer using FirstClass. We are now using Microsoft Outlook. Although FirstClass is supposed to continue "transferring all emails" to our new domain, it is best for you to actually use our domain when you are emailing us.
The name part of the email address is the same -
(First Name_MI_Last Name) but the domain is now @dekalbschoolsga.org
Although it is our expectation to respond promptly to emails, we are experiencing problems with the new email system. We have received a lot of complaints that multiple emails have been sent, and that teachers, counselors, and administrators are not responding to them. If you do not hear back from a staff member within two business days (48 hours) from an email you sent, please follow up with a phone call. Thank you.
