Academic Updates
Google Classroom
* One issue a number of people have is that someone is already logged into Google or Gmail with their personal account when they try to log-in their student. You must log out of all Google accounts on the device before beginning the process to log-in to ClassLink and Google Classroom.
* Log-in instructions can be found here.
Device Distribution & Supply Pick Up
* Pull in to the front drop off bus line and STAY IN YOUR CAR. We will come to your car window and assist you with checking out a device or getting supplies from your classroom or locker. Please be patient as forms will have to be signed in order to receive the device.
* If you cannot come on Monday, March 30, please email trthomas@caddoschools.org so that arrangements can be made for Tuesday, March 31 or Wednesday, April 1.
* If you did not complete the technology survey to request a device and need one, please email jldepriest@caddoschools.org with your child's name and grade so that forms can be ready for you when you come to check-out a device.
