Email is our primary form of communication, but unfortunately, many of our whole school community emails get sent to Spam/Junk folders. This is a common occurrence for RenWeb/FACTS schools. This page contains the steps to ensure that our emails are Whitelisted and allowed into your inboxes. Please complete these steps to ensure that you receive all the latest information from the school.

  2. Navigate to "Filters and Blocked Addresses" in the top menu.
  3. Select “Create a new filter.”
  4. Add a specific email or a whole domain in the "From" field.
    1. The "From" field is where you'll specify what's getting whitelisted. In Gmail, you can specify either a specific email address (e.g. hello@domain.com), or you can whitelist a whole domain by omitting everything before the at symbol (e.g. @domain.com)." Enter @asestn.org and @renweb.com
