There is a lot of electronic communication within the SMA community. Whether it is student progress, upcoming events, forms that need to be completed, … it is important that there is nothing to deter that communication. With that said it is important to identify email from St. Mary’s as being safe so you don’t miss anything. If you already know how to add safe senders our email domain is @smapdx.org. In addition, please add no-reply@rackspace.powerschool.com as a safe sender for PowerSchool notifications related to log in accounts, progress reports, grades, etc. If you are not sure how we have provided some basic instructions on what to do with some of the more popular email services below using the web browser. If you have a service different from those below we recommend contacting your internet service provider for further assistance.
