SFUSD’s Google Resources

  • Do Make Clear to Students & Families that Google Classrooms are for Students Only: Parents/Guardians should not join Google Classrooms as students as this is a data privacy issue. Teachers should invite parents/guardians to Google Classroom guardian email summaries so they can see information about their child.

  • Do Disable Join Codes: Add students to your Google Classrooms rather than share Join Codes. This is a more secure way to invite students to class. Watch video to learn how.

  • Do Consider Turning Off Comments (at first):

Until online behavior norms are established, consider turning off comments to limit inappropriate behavior.

  • Don’t Make Google Classroom Links or Join Codes Public:

Sharing Join Codes publicly is asking for someone who shouldn’t be in a Classroom to join it, whether it be someone external or another student/staff members. Only students and teachers in the class, and school administrators should have Join Codes.

  • Don’t Invite Parents/Guardians to be Students in Your Classroom:

This is a FERPA violation for other students in

your class. Only students, teachers, and

related school professionals should be in

SFUSD Google Classrooms. Instead, invite

parents/guardians to receive Google Classroom

guardian email summaries

  • Do Check the Waiting Room: Check participant names against class rosters before allowing participants in from the waiting room

  • Do Turn Off Screen Sharing: While on by default, make sure you have this turned off in your settings to prevent a participant from sharing something in appropriate.

  • Do Only Allow Authenticated Users: Only SFUSD students and employees should access student-focused Zoom meetings.

  • Do Manage Chat: Make sure students cannot chat to each other, student-to-student. Turn off the ability to chat everyone until online norms are established
  • Don’t Make Zoom Links/Invites Public: You are asking for someone who shouldn’t be in the class to join you.

  • Don’t Allow Meetings to be Open to External Participants:

While SFUSD’s default is restricted to SFUSD, many teachers/staff requested external access. Keep “Require Authentication to Join” checked unless you are expecting non-SFUSD guests.

  • Don’t Leave Breakout Rooms Unsupervised

Students should have adult supervision in break-out rooms; and should not be encouraged to create break-outs on their own using SFUSD accounts.

Where to Post Zoom/Meet/Classroom Info

  • Password-protected Class Sites in Synergy - Families can access through ParentVue and Students through StudentVue

  • Emails or messages sent through Synergy to students & Families

  • Google Classroom or Seesaw - do not share join codes to Classrooms/Seesaw as this opens the potential for students not in the class to access meeting links

  • Meeting Invites - that only have the students’ SFUSD emails invited

  • Meeting Agendas and/or Slide Decks with appropriate sharing settings

Share Class Information Securely & Consistently

Being able to access classroom information securely in one place makes navigating distance learning easier for families, especially for middle and high schoolers and families with multiple students in the district.

Post general class information, such as schedules, syllabi, Zoom/Google links on your Class Site in Synergy!

Parents and Students will be able to access class information consistently in ParentVue and StudentVue.
