LAUSD Student Internet and ePal Accounts
YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT
https://epals.lausd.k12.ca.us/The only information that you need to access your web-based ePal email is your LAUSDnet username, which is usually your three initials followed by the last 3 or 4 numbers on your 10 digit student ID (see you ID card). For example, a student named Jose Garcia might have a username of jxg151, all lowercase. The initial password is the student's 6 digit birthdate (DOB).
Username: jxg151 Password: 011389
You can change that when you log in to any password with at least 6 characters. User numbers and letters to create a more secure password. Remember it. You will be charged $1.00 to create a new password.
Make sure to log into the LAUSDnet ePals web page (https://epals.lausd.k12.ca.us/), not epals.com. EPals.com is the generic, nationwide web site that does NOT provide free Internet access with the email account for LAUSD students.

INTERNET ACCESS
http://techsupport.lausd.net/lausdnet_setup.htmThe LAUSDnet student account, also provides Internet access from home to any student with a computer, modem, and phone line. Students log in with the same username and password as the email/ePals account. The directions for configuring Internet access at home can be found on the LAUSDnet web site> Employees> Tech Help> Dial-up instructions.
The local access numbers are available in the 213 and 310 area codes.
Any computer with Windows 95 on up will already have all the necessary dial-up, web browser (Internet Explorer), and email software. Set up your dial-up software for more than one phone number. Of course students can download and/or install other Internet compliant software such as Mozilla or Firefox if they wish. You can photocopy any of these instructions in the library for 10 cents per page.
