Google Tools

What is GSuite for Education?

G Suite for Education is a suite of tools that allows students, with their Vancouver School District account log-in, to collaborate, word-process, store and organize all of their documents and files in one place.

Students can access several Google applications that are used to support their learning. This includes Google Drive (with unlimited storage), Google Docs (word processing), Google Classroom (learning management system directed by their teacher), and other useful online learning.
