How to use Zoom:
Starting MONDAY, students may have LIVE ZOOM meetings scheduled during the week. All of the presentations will be recorded so kids can watch them when they can (or can watch them multiple times for increased learning).
Students are not required to have a Zoom account and can join classes using the links sent from the teacher. For the best experience, we do recommend every user download the Zoom application on their preferred Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, or Android device.
Students will get a zoom link and time through Google Classroom (4-8th) or Class Dojo (K-3). Below is a video on how to join a meeting.
For joining via Chromebook: Please click install from chrome web store button then close the newly opened tab then click start from your browser that appears below the install from chrome button
