Students in grades K-2 are to keep their county issued Chromebooks at home. Each K-2 teacher has been issued a classroom set of Chromebooks for students to use at school during the day. While students will be using paper and pencils for many assignments, they will also use their Chromebooks to access digital resources both in and out of class. For more information, on the use and care of your child's Chromebook, CLICK HERE.

Logging in to Google Chrome is not the same as logging in to Google Drive. Students should be logged into Chrome on their AACPS issued Chromebooks in order to easily access digital resources and many instructional materials. For help, please view this video to learn more. https://sites.google.com/aacps.org/teacher-intro-to-digital-tools/the-basics?authuser=0

On the AACPS home page, click on "Students" in the dark blue toolbar and then click on "ClassLink - Student Portal" on the right side under Resources/Links. Your student will log in with his/her student ID number and password. If your student cannot remember his/her student ID number or password, please reach out to your student's homeroom teacher.

You can also access ClassLink using the link below (your student will still need to log in):

https://launchpad.classlink.com/aacps?autosamllogin=1

We recommend using the Chrome browser and adding your student's Google account to the browser. This will give you access to your student's bookmark bar (which already has ClassLink added).

Your child will access the Brightspace platform through ClassLink. On your student's ClassLink page, there is an app for Brightspace (white background with an orange B icon). When your student clicks on this app, it should already log them in.

If for some reason the app does not automatically log your student in, your student will use his/her username (studentID#@aacps.org) and password. If your student cannot remember his/her student ID number or password, please reach out to your student's homeroom teacher.
