• Webdesk for Students

    With one click, Webdesk (Classlink) can sign students in automatically to their online textbooks and digital academic resources AND give access to files at school or in the cloud. This lightweight alternative to carrying textbooks around all day gives students access to all instructional/textbook-related materials they need. Students can customize their Webdesk dashboard by rearranging tiles, organizing tiles into folders, and changing the theme/background. Some apps/online textbooks are assigned to the Webdesk dashboard via our SIS (Frontline Teams) and those cannot be edited.
