what to when Losing my .edu accounts due to retirement?

As a retiring educator, I expect to soon lose my .edu accounts. Would prefer not to lose all my. edu emails, but understand they may be held on school's server and may lose them. Can they be saved? More importantly, can I move my Outlook calendar and contacts to another account that I will need to create? Other steps I can take? Have some gmail accounts but happy to open a Microsoft email account if advised to do so. Use Outlook for Mac version 16.72.2 but also get email, calendar and Contacts on IPhone, IPad. Thanks and try to keep it simple.
