[Sagamore Online] Google Drive (Online Storage/Collaboration)

[Dave Allen Barker Jr]

To start playing with the PTA's Google Drive account, simply:

 1. Visit Google Drive <https://drive.google.com/> and *login*
     1. If you don't have a Google Account, you can create one
        <https://accounts.google.com/SignUpWithoutGmail>.  If you're
        nervous about having a Google Account, please talk to me—I've
        been there and may be able to address your concerns.
 2. *Search* for "Sagamore Hills Elementary School".  You should see a
    folder with that name, owned by, "Admin SagamoreHillsPTA".
     1. If you can't find it, let me know—you may not have access.
 3. Optionally, to the "Sagamore Hills Elementary School" folder, you can:
     1. "Star" it so you don't have to search for it next time (it will
        be under "Starred" items)
     2. Add it to "My Drive" so that it will sync locally to your
        devices where Google Drive is installed.
 4. Within the "Sagamore Hills Elementary School" folder, feel free to
    *play*: making folders, uploading documents, creating documents, etc.

If you've never used Google Drive, inevitably there's a learning curve. 
There's plenty of info online if you're a self starter.  I'm up for
hosting some education sessions, just name a time and place (or I will).

Right now, the following email addresses have access (I don't know if
they're all Google Accounts though).  Let me know if a different Google
Account email address should be used, and who else should be added.
