The GAFE account can only be used within the district's system.  

This account will allow students to create documents and presentations and share them with teachers and other students.  

The Google Classroom will allow easy sharing and collaboration.

Mr. English's students completed many activities and assignments using Classroom Google last year and this year's students will use Classroom Google in new and exciting ways.  Classroom Google allows students to view and complete assignments from any device with google.
