Google Guardian Summary Invitation 

This week you will receive an invitation from Joe O’Brien, Director of Technology and Assessment, to sign up as a guardian in your student’s Google Classroom (grades 3-12). Accepting this invitation will allow you to receive emailed summaries to see what has been assigned to your student in their classes. You must opt in to receive these summaries.

GoGuardian; Chromebook Monitoring for Parents
Meridian School District uses GoGuardian to keep students safe on their school-issued Chromebooks. Parents of students in grades 2-12 have access to the GoGuardian Parent App. This application allows web-based filtering and parental controls on school-issued Chromebooks at home. You may set rules to allow or disallow certain websites, scheduled or on-demand internet pausing during out-of-school hours.
The app gives parents a bird’s eye view of the apps and websites that their kids are on most often and control over school-issued Chromebooks during out-of-school hours. With this perspective, parents can be made aware of what types of browsing behavior schools are seeing from students, so they can all work together to encourage more effective internet browsing habits at home and at school. Directions for this app are on our website.
