Requesting a Resource for Student/Staff Use

Modified on: Thu, May 30 2024 10:52 AM

How to view currently available resources (web-based, iOS Apps, or Google Extensions & Add-Ons) and request new ones.


Note: We require a signed data privacy agreement (DPA) for ANY resource that:

  • Offers individual student login (including Google sign-in) even if the resource can be used without signing in. 

  • Needs access to student data. This applies to many browser extensions and Google Suite add-ons as well as requests for data loads. Examples: Grammarly or Naviance.

Current Resources

TTSD offers a robust selection of vetted resources to support student learning and school business. Resources include iOS apps, Websites, and Browser extensions & add-ons. These resources have been vetted for educational value and privacy considerations. 


To comply with FERPA law, many resources will require a data privacy agreement (DPA) before students can use them. See sidebar to the right. You can view a list of resources and their status using the link below.


TTSD Digital Resource Menu

To Request a New Resource

1. Check to see if the resource is listed as approved using the link above. If not, continue to step 2.

2. Consider the following.

  • Is there already an adopted resource to meet this need?
  • Is a data privacy agreement (DPA) required? (see sidebar)
  • We cannot approve iPad apps that display ads to students as we have no control over ad content.

3. Fill out a Digital Resource Request service request.
