G Suite is Google's collection of apps and tools for data storage, creation, collaboration, and management. This resource page contains links to helpful information for using your FISD Google account.
Keep
Google Keep is a organizational tool that allows you to save notes, lists, photos, and audio and access them online and through the Keep app on your device. Keep allows you to add collaborators, so you can share your notes, lists, etc. with others. All the information you save on Keep is searchable, and you can quickly mark items completed as you finish your tasks.
