School WiFi Networks Extended
*ONLY WORKS ON DISTRICT CHROMEBOOKS PROVIDED TO STUDENTS*
An important update is the OUSD Community Wifi Access Map. Locations on this map correspond with select OUSD school sites and they feature a WiFi network called OUSD Chromebook. Signal strength has been turned up at these locations, and families can drive up to one of the sites and connect. This WiFi service is for those families who do not have a viable internet option at home or who just need to connect to a stable and robust wifi signal. OUSD Chromebooks will automatically connect to the network. We will continue to add more sites based on results and requests from the Google Form survey available in the map description.
