As part of this update, we’ve streamlined and reorganized information to make it easier to navigate. If you can’t find something or notice a missing link, please let us know.

To make accessing resources faster and more convenient, student links have been moved to Chrome bookmarks. This change allows students to quickly find the tools and websites they use most often without needing to navigate through the website.

Students can access their bookmarks by:

• Logging into their district-provided Chromebook or their Chrome browser using their school Google account.
• Clicking on the Bookmarks Bar, located just below the address bar at the top of the browser window.
• Selecting the link or tool they need from the list of bookmarks provided.

If the Bookmarks Bar isn’t showing, students can enable it by:

• Clicking the three dots in the upper-right corner of the browser window.
• Selecting Bookmarks from the dropdown menu.
• Clicking Show Bookmarks Bar to display it.

Yes! All the resources that were previously on the website are now bookmarked for students in their Chrome browser. This ensures they can quickly access important tools like learning platforms, email, and other resources.

Yes, as long as students log into the Chrome browser with their school Google account, their bookmarks will sync and be available on any device.

This change was made to streamline access for students, ensuring they have the resources they need at their fingertips as soon as they log into Chrome. It’s part of our effort to enhance efficiency and provide a more seamless experience.

We’re putting the finishing touches on the site and appreciate your patience as we finalize updates. If you encounter broken links or have trouble finding something, you can report it using the feedback form.

 Absolutely! We value your input. Use the feedback form to share your thoughts or suggestions. Your feedback helps us make the site the best it can be for everyone in our district.

Yes! The website will continue to evolve to meet the needs of families, students, and the community. Regular updates will ensure it remains a reliable and current resource.
