Overview

Sixth graders are encouraged to BYOD (Bring Your Own Device); We recommend a Chromebook and a corded mouse. There will be a couple of Chromebook loaners available in class if you forget your device. We use Google Classroom for many of our class assignments. This allows students to access assignments, work on Google Drive, and submit assignments, so having access to a Chromebook or laptop is important. In Google Drive we mainly use Docs (word processor) and Slides (presentation/power point). All of these are saved to each student's Google Drive, allowing them to access their work from any computer; they simply need to log in using their Los Al Student portal.

Los Al Student Portal

  1. Log into the Los Al portal: Click here (www.mylosal.golosal.net). This gives you access to most of your school accounts.

  2. Your Los Al portal, Google Drive/Classroom, and Microsoft logins all use the same username and password. Use the format below to sign in.

  3. By logging in to the Los Al portal, you are automatically logged into Google Classroom, Google Drive, Office 365 Online (Email Exchange and Share Point).

  4. You also have links to many school-used websites such as No Red Ink, Khan Academy, Oak Website, and AERIES.
