At VUSD, Google tools are central to our daily work. We use the Chrome browser, classrooms are equipped with Chromebook carts, and email is handled through Gmail. All of these systems use the same standard Google login. Follow the steps below to access your account.
Open the Chrome browser from your desktop.
If a Google prompt appears, click "Got it" to continue.
Click "Sign In" in the upper-right corner of the Chrome window.
In the "Email or phone" field, type your full district email address.
Example: nhope@vacavilleusd.org
Click "Next" to continue.
Enter your district Google password and follow the prompts to sign in.
If prompted with "Continue as [Your Name]", click it to proceed.
Example: "Continue as Nathaniel"
If you see a "School Profiles" message, click "Continue".
You will be prompted to create a new profile for work.
Make sure "Yes, keep my data separate from work (recommended)" is selected, then click "Confirm".
When prompted, click "Turn on Sync" to ensure your VUSD bookmarks and settings are applied to your profile.
You can choose a profile name and picture now or click "Skip" to do this later in Settings.
You are now officially signed in to Google with your district account and ready to access Gmail, Drive, and other Google tools.
