Student working on computer in library

Chromebooks, Google Workspace and mobile interactive monitors have all become part of the way our students learn at the Oak Creek-Franklin Joint School District. With access to Chromebooks and an array of web-based programs, students are able to learn valuable skills they will need as they prepare for the next chapter of their lives, whatever that may be.

Google Workspace

All Oak Creek-Franklin students have access to Google Workspace with their own unique accounts. Google Workspace is a powerful suite of applications for managing collaboration between and among students and teachers. Many of our teachers have been looking for new ways to improve student engagement, and Google Workspace is a great way to accomplish that..
