Teacher/Staff Shout Outs
Bark-District issued Account Monitoring
Keeping students safe on district-issued accounts and devices continues to be of
paramount importance to Klein ISD. We heard from our families in the recent back-
to-school annual Family Survey that our families would like to be able to see what is
happening on their children’s district-issued Google Drive and Gmail accounts. In
response to that request, Klein ISD is providing Bark for Schools.
