Logging Into to a Student Google Account from Home

If you have more than one person sharing a family device, to access Google Apps, you will want to set up a process for ensuring that each person logs out of Google before a student logs on. View a video tutorial (by Mrs. Spinks) for how-to do this.

Single Sign On (SSO) 

After logging on to your SCUSD Chromebook, you will use a SSO and select the Google Chrome Icon and then The SCUSD Portal, aka "ClassLink" in order to log in to sites such as Learning A-Z (RazKids), Footsteps2Brilliance, Typing Agent, Lexia, i-Ready, and other district-supported websites/platforms/apps.
