Welcome to the 8th-grade, Families! We are so happy to meet you, Class of 2021!
Hello students and families,
I hope this email finds you safe and well, despite all that is going on.
VPN Update
The Global Protect app has another update ready and is now at version 5.3-3. Please take care of this update as soon as possible by going to the LAUSD App Catalog (orange background, blue folder with an arrow and the LAUSD symbol), find and choose Global Protect. Click "Installed" or "Install" and a pop-up will appear. Click "install" one more time and the app will begin processing. It will take no more than two minutes for the app to update.
