Although any device will work, Roncalli High School STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that students have laptops versus tablets. In the case of iPads, they are not supported on the Roncalli network. We recommend bringing a supported device or request to use a Roncalli device. 

Roncalli is a mix of Windows and Gsuite environment-based, it is important to note that if a student has a Mac, all assignments must be created on a platform that is compatible for the teacher to be able to view the work when submitted electronically. For example, a paper cannot be submitted in Pages or a presentation cannot be submitted in Keynote because those programs are specific to Mac and cannot be viewed on the teachers’ Windows-based computers.  However, a student could create and share the paper using a web-based program like Google Docs without any compatibility issues. Also, if the student is doing a presentation and wants to project something directly from a Mac, the student would need to supply the appropriate adapter in order to hook up to the projection system in the classroom (adapter from Mac to VGA).

Google Meet FAQs

Google Meet is the official live meeting platform used by teachers when hosting synchronous meetings with students. To provide maximum flexibility for teachers hosting Google Meets, RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS recently updated the permissions for Google Meet for our users. These changes ensure that: 

● Students cannot enter Google Meets before a teacher is present.

● Teachers always can act as the Host in a Google Meet.

● Students cannot rejoin a Google Meet once the teacher has left. 

 The following FAQs provide additional information for parents about the use of Google Meet for synchronous interactions between teachers and students. 

Will Google Meets be recorded? 

 Teachers may record all synchronous interactions with students. When a teacher records a Google Meet, the recording is saved in the teacher’s classroom Google Drive. The teacher will be able to provide a link to students that they can use to view the recording. Teachers record Meetings to ensure students who are not able to participate live have access to the content and to provide an accurate record of the events of the meeting.  

 Does RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS require parental consent before a student can be recorded?  

 Yes, Roncalli Catholic Schools requires parental consent to record meetings with students present. Your child’s school should provide an electronic permission form that can be used to provide consent. 

How long will recordings be retained?  

Teachers are required to keep recordings of synchronous sessions with students for a minimum of seven days. Teachers may choose to keep recordings longer but will be asked to delete all recordings at the end of the school year. 

How will recordings be shared? 

 Recordings will be shared with students via Google Classroom or the teacher’s primary communication platform. 

Will recordings be shared with the media or otherwise shared outside of RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS? 

 No. Teachers will only share recordings with students that belong specifically to the classroom of which the meeting took place. Videos will be shared in such a way that the viewer must login with a RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS account before accessing the video. 

 Will teachers meet one-on-one with students via Google Meet? 

In general, teachers will meet with groups of students or whole classes of students through Google Meet. If a one-on-one meeting is needed, the teacher will request that a parent or guardian also be present during the meeting. 

Can a student create their own Google Meet? 

 Students cannot create a Google Meet session in the Roncalli Catholic Schools G Suite domain. 

Students can only join Google Meet sessions created and shared by teachers.  

Can a student join a Meet without a teacher present? 

 A teacher must first join the Meet before a student can.

Can Meet be used to communicate with people outside of RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS? 

Teachers can invite external users like a guest speaker to a Google Meet. The teacher must admit this external user before s/he can join the Google Meet session. If students share the URL of a Google Meet with an external user, the external user cannot join the Google Meet session unless admitted by the teacher. Students do not have the ability to admit external users to RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS Google Meets. 

 My child is having trouble accessing a Google Meet. What can I do to help? 

Because of the security settings currently in place, only RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS users can join Meets created by RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS teachers. This means that your child needs to sign in to Google Meet with his or her RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS account before joining the Meeting. For students with Chromebooks provided by RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS, the easiest way to participate in a Meet is on their RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS Chromebook. This ensures that the student will be signed in with the correct G Suite account before attempting to join the Meet. If joining a Meet on a personal device, make sure any personal Google or Gmail accounts are signed out, then login to Meet with the student’s RONCALLI CATHOLIC SCHOOLS Google account.
