For New SFUSD Students:

If you are new to SFUSD or logging in on a SFUSD Chromebook for the first time, a box will pop up and ask you to enter a screen name to join the meeting. Please type your first name and last name exactly like it is on your Google account, then click Join. The Zoom Meeting will open and you will enter the Waiting Room. Your teacher will admit you into the meeting.

Note: You will only have to type in your screen name one time.  After doing this step once, you will be automatically placed into the waiting room each time you click to join a  Zoom meeting from the link.
