Chrome Browser

The Chrome Browser is available on chromebooks, as well as most other devices. By logging in to the Chrome Browser, a user can have access to all of their documents, bookmarks, and extensions from anywhere!

Logging Into the Chrome Browser

Student and staff Google accounts can be used to log in to a chromebook, as well as logging into the Chrome Browser on many other devices (Windows, Mac, etc.).

Adding & Managing Extensions

Extensions add new features to your Chrome Browser to extend its capabilities! Added extensions will be available in Chrome on any device when you login with your Google account!

Our district pushes out some useful extensions to every user. Users can also add their own extensions!

Staff members have the ability to browse and add all extensions. Students can only browse and add extensions that have been approved.

Staff and students can browse extensions at the Chrome Web Store.

Sometimes it is necessary to remove old extensions that no longer work or interfere with how your chromebook is running.

To manage your extensions:

1) Open your Chrome Browser settings

2) Select More Tools

3) Choose Extensions

Users will not be able to remove or turn off extensions that are pushed out by the district.

Bookmarking Websites

You don't have to keep all of those tabs open to find your way back to them! Bookmark them for easy locating in the future!

Using the Omnibox

The Google Omnibox is much more than an address bar!

You can use the omnibox to type in a web address, search for keywords/phrases, and do all sorts of other "Googly" actions.

Try a few:

Type "10 minute timer" and "6 minute timer" in the omnibox

Try searching “y = 2x + 3” and y = 2x^2”

Search for "square feet to acres"

Type "roll dice" and "flip a coin"
