After extensive research the school emails are now compatible with the troop wide emails. It is still highly recommended that you get your own email that is separate from the school emails, and your not supposed to use your school email for things other than school. For the emails to work you must use "@chelmsford.k12.ma.us" instead of the normal "@cpslions.com". To update your email on the roster click "My Profile" located under "User" on the left interface. From there click "edit member" to edit your profile. Now you should see all of your profile information and can change your email, just make sure to click "save" to save your changes.
