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

[David E.F. Klein]

Dave (and interested others),
 
I have added folders for all of the PTA positions by title (e.g. Secretary, Wellness, etc.) under the main folder on the Google Drive. As an experiment I also uploaded all of the current files for the Reflections program to the following folder:
 
Sagamore Hills Elementary School / Enrichment (Academic) / Reflections
 
It was a fairly painless process for me, but I am already familiar with Google Drive. I would like to see if anyone has any problems downloading them. Thanks.
 
David

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

    

    
      Visit Google Drive
        and login

      
      
        If you don't have a Google Account, you can create
            one.  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.
      
      Search for "Sagamore Hills Elementary
        School".  You should see a folder with that name, owned by,
        "Admin SagamoreHillsPTA".
      
        If you can't find it, let me know—you may not have access.
      
      Optionally, to the "Sagamore Hills Elementary School" folder,
        you can:

      
      
        "Star" it so you don't have to search for it next time (it
          will be under "Starred" items)
        Add it to "My Drive" so that it will sync locally to your
          devices where Google Drive is installed.
      
      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.

      Took the first baby steps with the PTA's Google Drive account.

      Right now, myself, Nancy, Anindita, Kim, Jen, David, Monica,
        and John, are free to experiment.  Find the "Sagamore Hills
        Elementary School" folder under "Shared with me" in Google
        Drive, or follow this link:

      The idea here is that PTA files are controlled and stored
        online by the PTA, but usable by volunteers (e.g. the Board). 
        Folks can use files as they always have (e.g. Microsoft Office),
        but save them to the PTA's Google Drive (i.e. in the cloud) so
        everyone always sees the latest version (no email
        attachments!).  I'll be working to document how this is done.
