Chromebooks are not recommended: Due to the various updates needed on Chromebook devices and Zoom, we do not recommend you use a Chromebook. If you do use a Chromebook, make sure that your device is updated and that you have installed the Progressive Web App for Zoom. If you have an old version of Zoom installed on your device, you will need to uninstall that version in order to install the new version.
Please note: For access to technology throughout the academic school year, you will need to complete a separate request before the start of the quarter.
