NOTE: None of the methods on this page are officially supported by the Tech Department, if you lose a file in your google drive, or other storage services, we can’t help you get them back.
These methods are intended for students who won’t be returning, as all their stuff will be deleted a few months after they leave the district (via graduation, moving, etc.)
Google Drive:
1. Make sure Google Chrome is installed on your device, if not, grab it from Self-Service.

3. Once signed into your account, go to “drive.google.com”
