Getting to Know ClassLink
St. Laurence Catholic School is now using ClassLink, a single sign-on platform that will allow teachers and students to use one username and password to access everything they need. Single sign-on is an essential tool for productive remote learning, and ClassLink will serve as your child’s home base for education, whether it’s in the classroom or on the couch at home. ClassLink can be accessed from either a computer or a mobile device.
When students log in to ClassLink, they will have a dashboard similar to above. Each dashboard will be customized depending on student grade level and class enrollment. ClassLink also offers single sign-on services and password lockers.

How to use and manage the ClassLink Password Locker
In Classlink, some apps (like Renaissance, Flourish, and a few others) require a user to enter their username and password the first time into what is called a password locker. When the user correctly types in the username and password, it will save it for future use. However, if it is entered incorrectly, the user will not be able to log in. If this happens, the fix is easy.
In ClassLink, right mouse click the app in question.
Click Edit Password.
On the next screen, you will see an entry called Default. To the right of that, you will see a red X. Click that to remove the password locker for this app.
Go back and try the app again being sure to type the correct username and password when prompted.
