There are many web apps students and teachers can use on their Chromebooks and in the Chrome browser on other systems. Chrome extensions are installed from the Chrome Web Store to expand the capabilities of the Chrome browser and Chromebooks. To begin, please click the heading above to get started with Chrome Extensions for students. We ask for families to activate and pin these extensions.
