Take a look at the list of the FCPS-approved Google Chrome extensions!
pdf2go.com is great for students to edit existing pdf files! Upload the pdf file to Canvas, have students save it to their Google Drive and then open it in pdf2go.com! Students can type, write, draw, highlight, etc. right on the pdf and then save it for upload back to Canvas! Check it out!
If you have packet materials to be printed for students with special needs or without technology at home, they should be sent to Administration as ONE PDF file. Documents and worksheets must be PDF files (convert easily in Google Docs or Word), and then merged into one PDF file for printing. Use pdf2go.com and choose Merge PDF (the files must be PDF files to use). See video.
Click on the presentation to choose webinars that you would like to attend! The District is offering help with live webinars, live help sessions, and archived video sessions on Canvas, Google Meet, Screencastify, Zoom, edPuzzle and Flipgrid! (3/24/2020)

When a student has lost or broken their charger, they must replace it before the end of the school year. During NTI, students must purchase online. Please be aware that some students have the HP 11" G5 Chromebook, and some have the HP 11" G6 Chromebook. If a student cannot pay for the charger, please contact our Family Resource Center.
