Request Extensions, Apps, & Google Workspace Setting Changes

(Staff may get the ones they need without approval.) If the one you want for students is not there, submit a request through the Technology Help Desk. On the requst, include the grade level (ES, MS or HS) and explain the educational purpose of the tool.
