What is Google Classroom?
Google Classroom is a digital learning platform, which teachers use to interact with their students online. Beginning April 6, 2020, parents are asked to ensure that their K-12 student(s) log on to Google Classroom for instruction, assignments and tests from their teacher(s). Teachers use this tool to create classes, distribute assignments, send feedback, and see everything in one place. More information may be found here.
