How to Access Learning Materials

on Google Classroom

[Grades K-8]

In grades K-8 at the School District of the Chathams, we utilize the G-Suite for Education’s Google Classroom as our learning management system (LMS). Google Classroom enables our teachers to easily create, distribute, and collect digital assignments in one location. To access the learning materials and assignments, your child will log on to Google Classroom.

In order to log into Google Classroom, your son/daughter can navigate to https://googleapps.chatham-nj.org/ and click on the Google Classroom icon.

It will bring you to the login page where s/he will select "Log in for Students" and enter his/her district provided username and password.

If your son/daughter does not remember his/her username and/or password, this information can be found in the Parent Portal. Once you log in, the information can be found within the “Summary” tab.
