Hi Danielle,

If you want to use Outlook 365 on the web, you will need to select the
light version.  This version is meant for people who have older
browsers, low band width, or accessibility needs.  (Can you tell?  I
just looked it up.  :))

All that to say, it is usable and even easy at that but not the most
efficient of methods for email.  I would recommend making sure you're
logged into Outlook on the web online.  Unfortunately, selecting the
light version may require sighted eyes and a mouse user, but once you
have selected this version, it will remember every time.

I would recommend using Microsoft Outlook primarily for your school
email as that will be much quicker for attaching documents and finding
contacts.  I only ensured that I was plugged into Outlook online in
case Outlook froze on me.

I hope this helps you.  Good luck with outlook!!!
