You might think of it as an online library of resources and information for students that can link to any of our district curricula, learning apps, websites or documents that a student might need to access. Students can also use it to get to their District-domain Google Classroom (and from there to all other district G-Suite tools, e.g., Docs, Slides, Meet, Sites, etc.).
For many apps the students only have to remember their ClassLink login and then ClassLink will manage their passwords and logins to the other apps or websites that they use. Sometimes students enter their login credentials just once while logged into ClassLink and then ClassLink will remember those credentials in the future.
Teachers can set up classroom pages for students and make sure that those pages have the intended links and apps for a whole class of students, or even a subgroup of students.
Below is some getting started info and some online tutorials around use of ClassLink.
