About
Gaggle.Net
Gaggle is dedicated to providing safe e-mail accounts for
students. The tools we provide allow schools to finally feel secure when
giving their students e-mail access.
On the Gaggle Network teachers control what can be written
and who can correspond with the students. Messages with inappropriate
words are automatically re-routed to the teacher's account. This allows
the teacher to decide whether or not the student gets to see the message.
